Duties and responsibilities of the lab instructors (GA students):

• Conduct viva on experiment.
• Take note on the late comer(s) and deduct his/her marks by 50%.
• Evaluate the reports and give feedback on the content and what needs to be improved. E.g., report of
experiment in week 7 will be submitted by the students prior to the experiment in week 8.

2. COURSE LEARNING OUTCOME (CLO)

The objective of this laboratory is to extend the knowledge of chemical process dynamics, instrumentation and
control into practical work. The laboratory content will offer you the application of the fundamental concepts and
theory of the subjects as applied to the chemical engineering unit operations and everyday life.

COURSE SYNOPSIS:
1. This practical course requires several groups of ~5 students to perform experiments related to process
instrumentation, dynamics and control.

NOTE:
● Submit the report of the previous experiment to the corresponding lab instructor through email before your next session begins.

● Viva is conducted to evaluate student’s preparation and concepts underlying the theory of the laboratory session.

● DO NOT come late!!! 50% marks deduction on the VIVA will be applied to those individuals who come late!

● DO NOT come unprepared! GA students will conduct a VIVA, starting from the 1st virtual experiment (week 7) to check if each student understands what to do before preparing the report.

● Bold red numbers in light yellow box = group numbers

● Numbers in white box = experiment numbers with short report

5. DO’s and DON’Ts

a) You must attend all lab sessions. In case of absentees, these rules apply:

Absent because of: What should you submit to the Coordinator?

● Illness / hospitalization. A valid Medical Certificate issued by registered Medical Doctor.

● UTP commitments Release letter from the Chairman, lecturer or authorized personnel.

● Family matters Letter from parents or responsible next-of-kin.

12
CEB 3032 Chemical Engineering Lab III May 2021

You are required to inform the Lab Coordinator/Lab Technologist/ Lab

● Other emergencies/
Instructor. This needs to be supported by an authorized document that
unavoidable matters
has to be submitted later on.

b) Lab session is a GROUP EFFORT.

● If you are absent during the lab session, you cannot replace it. However, you have to be involved in
preparing the lab report with the group members to validate the mark on your part.
● Peer review will be considered for all reports during compilation of coursework marks.
● You must also attend the viva voce session accordingly (subjected to the arrangement with the Lab
Instructor).
● Without valid supporting document due to absenteeism, you will not be getting marks for any of the
lab assessments.
c) In case of lab falls on the public holiday, lab session will be replaced at other suitable time subjected to
availability.
d) In case of equipment breakdown, your experiment will be replaced with other available equipment.
However, cases below apply:
● If equipment breakdown happens after more than half of the experiment requirement, you must
proceed with the available results.
● If equipment breakdown happens less than half of the experiment requirement or before any results
obtained, the experiment must be replaced with other available experiment/equipment.

6. LAB SAFETY

a) Properly attired.
● You MUST wear your lab coat whenever you are in the lab.
● Other personal protective equipment (PPE, such as goggles, safety helmet, ear plugs, ear muff, etc)
will be provided accordingly.
● These clothing are not allowed in the laboratory:
a. National costumes (baju kurung, cheongsam, saree, traditional outfit, etc),
b. Jubah, skirts (short or long), sarongs, shorts.
c. Sandals, slippers and any uncovered shoes.
● For those who are wearing tudung or hijab, and with long hair, you are required to keep them neat.
