OUR PRACTICE
We focus on the practice of four key components in the center:
1.
Hands-on operation of lab scale chemical process and product equipment
2.
Computer-based design of chemical processes and products
3.
Safety hazard analysis in process and product design, scale-up and operation
4.
Modern technology tools and facilities for state-of-the-art instruction and communication
More than Laboratory...
The chemical engineering instructors at Vanderbilt wanted to move away from the traditional unit operations lab space.
By eliminating toxic chemicals in lab experiments, instructors have made the ChIL a multipurpose facility where students safely and sustainably conduct both lab and design coursework.
