Announcements (previous ones)
- Avenue grades have been added now for all question, except question 3.
- The midterm median, without question 3 that's not been graded yet, is 76%, which is right on target.
- Question 3 will take me a while to grade, so expect midterms returned next week. I apologize for the delays, but 4N4 and 4M3 are keeping me (and you) super busy.
- Please address any discrepancies regarding assignment grades with myself right away. Waiting until the end of the term is too late.
- Some questions have been asked about the project report, so I've updated the page:
- particularly on line spacing
- the coverage required for capital and operating costs
- the dates on which you will present (dates were selected to avoid clashes with 4N)
- the presentation format for slides.
- New: for those groups struggling to find information regarding sizing of your project equipment, please check Perry's and the other references suggested on this website.
- A useful article on designing and understanding adsorbers has been posted.
Based on the large volume of questions I've been getting regarding the course project makes me realize that some extra time and input is required from me to guide you.
- I rather you do this project properly.
- I propose we cancel the teaching part of class on Thursday and Friday. However, I will be in the MDCL room 1110 for any questions regarding your project and presentation during the class hours.
- The timing also works well, because there isn't enough time to start and finish the next section of the course before the presentations.
- The project submission is shifted to Sunday night by midnight (i.e 23:59 on Sunday) to allow you to act on any feedback.
- I'm not going to be available to email over the weekend, so please make sure you get your questions answered by Friday.

- Another change, as announced in class, assignment 5 will be optional. The grades for the assignment portion of the course will be best 4 assignments submitted, so each assignment counts 5%. Now I will make the deal even better for you: if you submitted 5 assignments over the semester, then the assignment that was not used in the best 4, will be a bonus grade, weighing 5%. Example:
- you submit 5 assignments and got: 50%, 60%, 70%, 80% and 90% respectively
- the assignment portion of your course grade will be (60+70+80+90)/4 x 0.20 = 15%
- you get a bonus grade of 50 * 0.05 = 2.5%
- If you hand in 4 or fewer assignments, then there is no bonus grade. This is one way you can boost your grade if you didn't do so well in the midterm.
