Summary
As part of the course, the student gets to know the equipment of process lines from the point of view of structural design. Their functions, structures and basic technological and structural calculations.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
Learning outcomes of the course unit The aim of the course is to acquaint students with technologies working in process lines, with theoretical fundamentals of process technologies, machines, equipment and practical applications of machines in process lines. Students will acquire the knowledge to describe the basic separation processes used in the processing of mineral raw materials, discuss the processes of processing the basic raw materials used in industrial technologies.
