Preliminary Lab Conference Terry A. Ring ChE University of Utah
Preliminary Lab Conference • Scheduled For Lab Time Tuesday 3 September • 20 min. Discussion with Lab Instructor • Get your team ready for an efficient meeting
Content • Know the equipment and how it works • Know equipment Hazards • Know the Theory • Error Analysis • Know the Chemical Hazards • Safety Procedures for various what if scenarios
Know the equipment • Bring P&ID of equipment!!! • Be prepared to talk about how it works? • What is measured with what instruments? • What is the physics behind instruments? • How accurate are these instruments? • How will measurement be used to verify the theory?
Know the Theory • With the problem statement, what theory is needed? • How are measurements going to be used to prove the theory being tested? • How are the theory and measurements going to be used for the design aspects of the problem?
Error Analysis • How will error analysis be performed on the data to verify the theory? • Is the measurement equipment accurate enough for this test of the theory? • What statistical test will you use to compare theory with experiment? • How will you propagate the error in any (design) calculation needed for your report?
Hazards • Chemical • EHS concerns for each chemical • Personal Protections needed • Spill Procedures to be followed • Waste Procedures • Equipment • Safety concerns of its operation • How can you get hurt using it?
Safety Procedures • What to do in case of • Fire • Electrical Hazard • Spill
