29 Nov: I have posted some comments regarding the final exam so you can start preparing.
03 Dec: the final Quest has been emailed to your @mcmaster.ca address. It is due by 21:00 on Friday evening. It contains some questions on Drying.
03 Dec: all grades for assignments 1, 2, 3, 4 and the midterm are on Avenue. Quest grades ~~will be posted soon as well~~ are posted now: sign into Quest to see them. Project grades are unlikely to be available before the final, as I'm still midway through reading them.
03 Dec: the solutions to assignment 5 are posted now.
03 Dec: if you've not done so yet, please take a few minutes to complete a course evaluation. I seriously read every comment, and use it to improve the course for next year. Thank you.
04 Dec: this will be of interest for those that wrote their project on fracking; instead of one type of separator, why not combine two? Membranes and distillation to treat frack water.
05 Dec: as mentioned in class, a great way to learn is by creating problems for yourself/your friends. If you do that, feel free to email them to me, and with your permission, I'd like to use them for future Quests.
