Why it need to be studied?
• Transport phenomena
• Momentum transfer
• Heat transfer
• Mass transfer
Process
Washing

Discontinuous, semi-continuous and
continuous
• Discontinuous operation was also called “batch” or “intermittent”
are carried out in step:
• Loading of equipment with raw materials
• Preparation of condition of transformation
• Required transformation
• Unloading products
• Cleaning equipment
• Ex. Oil extraction by solvent, flour is loaded and the solvent is fed
in a continuous way, after some time, the flour runs out of oil and
must be replace
Discontinuous, semi-continuous and
continuous
• Continuous process take place under steady state
