Unit 10 What is chemical engineering.ppt

By Li Xia Henan University of Urban Construction Guiding Questions 1.Can you tell the difference between the chemical engineering and the mechanical engineering? 2.When did the concept of “unit operation” first appear? 3.Can you list some core courses of chemical engineering? 4.What are the future trends in chemical engineering? And they were instrumental (有作用的，有帮助的)in perfecting the manufacture of penicillin, which saved the lives of potentially hundreds of thousands of (几十万，无数) wounded （受伤的）soldiers. 译：他们在完善penicillin的生产工艺中也是功不可没， penicillin挽救了几十万受伤士兵的生命。 hundreds of 数百，几百 thousands of 数千的，几千，数以千计 The Engineering Science Movement. Dissatisfied with empirical（经验的） descriptions of process equipment performance, chemical engineers began to reexamine（重新测试/考察） unit operations from a more fundamental point of view. The phenomena that take place in unit operations were resolved into （分解成）sets of molecular events. 译：工程学运动。由于不满意对工艺设备运行的经验描述，化学工程师开始从更基础的角度再审视单元操作。发生在单元操作中的现象可以分解成几组分子事件。 Quantitative mechanistic models （定量机械模型）for these events were developed and used to analyze existing equipment. Mathematical models of processes and reactors were developed and applied to capital-intensive U.S. industries such as commodity petrochemicals(日用石化产品). 译：这些事件的定量机械模型被建立并用于分析已有的仪器设备。过程和反应器的数学模型也被建立并被应用于资金密集型的美国工业如日用石化产品工业。 Parallel to （平行的，与…可相提并论）the growth of the engineering science movement was the evolution（发展，演变） of the core chemical engineering curriculum in its present form. Perhaps more than any other development, the core curriculum is responsible for （对…负责，是…形成的原因）the confidence with which chemical engineers integrate（结合，整合） knowledge from many disciplines（学科） in the solution of complex problems. 2、More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. 1、Perhaps more than any other people, Americans have come to depend on their cars. I love you more than any other man on earth. more than any other 比任何其他 译：也许美国人比其他任何国家的人更依赖汽车. 译：人类面临
