ChE Education Applications
This page features interactive educational applications that demonstrate the principles and calculations involved in various chemical engineering unit operations. Users can modify a wide range of process and operating parameters, with the corresponding plots and results updating in real time. This interactive approach helps chemical engineering students develop a more intuitive understanding of how changes in individual parameters affect overall process behavior and performance.
July 17, 2026 Update
The latest update to the ChE Apps expands their capabilities while preserving the reliability of the original computational engine. Support for open steam rectification has been added to the Ponchon–Savarit and McCabe–Thiele modules, enabling the analysis of a wider range of distillation processes. In addition, a new Gas Absorber and Stripping application has been introduced to cover gas–liquid separation operations. The underlying calculation code remains unchanged, ensuring consistent and reliable computational results. Meanwhile, the applications have been enhanced with graphical improvements and a redesigned user interface, developed with AI-assisted design tools, to replace the previous outdated interface with a more modern, intuitive, and visually appealing user experience.
