Paste and High Viscosity Processing
March 28 2012 at 11:00 a.m.–12:30 p.m. (ET)
90 Minute Accredited Online Training
Who Should Attend
Plant process and design engineers and scientists who are employed by the chemical, petrochemical, biochemical, food and pulp and paper and
other high tech industries and who are involved with mixing and multiphase processing in agitated tanks would benefit from this course.
Engineers involved in chemical reactor design, specialty chemical manufacture, biotechnology, fermentation, pilot plants, pharmaceuticals
process and project design, waste processing, paint & composite material manufacturing, food processing, pulp and paper processing and
waste minimization should attend.
Professionals include:
• Chemists
• Engineers
• Pharmacists
• Formulation scientists
• Biologists
• Material scientists
Description
This 90-minute accredited online training course is a detailed introductory course to provide the participant with an appreciation of the
complexities involved in paste and high viscosity processing. The fundamentals of processing are applied to industrial operations. Processing
will be analyzed for single phase systems in the laminar and creeping flow regimes. Power sources and fluid motions for processing will be
reviewed.
