1 Syllabus Process Plant Technology Course No.: PPT 175 & PPT 176 Course Name: Process Plant Sciences Lecture and Lab Semester: Fall 2016 Credits: Lecture: 4, Lab: 1 Lecture Meetings: B036: M, T, W, Th 12:40-1:40 Lab Meetings: A062: F 9:00-11:00 pm (Section 101) A062: F 11:00-1:00 pm (Section 100) A062: F 1:00-3:00 pm (Extra Section See Academic Issues Below) Instructor: Andrew D. Sullivan Phone: Andrew.Sullivan3@msubillings.edu Faculty Website: Office: A061 Office Hours: I have set aside about 15 hours per week of office hours and administrative time where I am available to help you with advising, tutoring, or other questions. A detailed schedule is attached on the last page. I am also going to eat my lunch in the commons area, so please join me for some informal discussion or if you have questions. Required Texts and Material: Access to D2L. No Textbooks required. Reading and other material will be posted on D2L. Prerequisites: PPT Fundamentals of Processing Technology Lecture. Course Description: Provides the fundamentals necessary for an in-depth look at the distillation process. Examines the concepts of heat and thermodynamics, as well as the chemical bonds, organic chemistry, the periodic table and hydrocarbon concepts. Gives students the necessary tools for a better understanding of the process taking place in the refining and power industries. Course Goals and Objectives: Upon completing this unit, students will be able to: 1. Explain the physical and chemical principles that govern the range of operation in a process plant. 2. Apply knowledge of physical and chemical principles to develop theories as to why a processing system is malfunctioning. Apply these principles to analyze a new process system and develop theories on how the process works. Andrew D. Sullivan PPT 175 & PPT 176 Process Plant Sciences Lecture and Lab Page 1 of 7

2 3. Collect process data, interpret results, reconcile results to base principles, and critique collection methods. 4. Demonstrate a safe, hands-on, and mechanically inclined approach to apply skills and knowledge to design and construct laboratory and process plant apparatus necessary to test theories and solve problems in an industrial setting. Misconduct: Academic or personal misconduct, as explained in Part IX of the Student Handbook, will be managed according to the procedures outlined in the handbook. Cheating: A student's submission must be their own work from start to finish. Sharing work products in any way is not acceptable. This includes sharing pieces of work such as an excel spreadsheet, graph, or table that will be included in separate homework submissions. Disrupting class: Disrupting the learning environment is personal misconduct as defined in the Student Handbook and can't be allowed. Individuals responsible for disrupting class will have their final grade reduced by 10% for each disruption. The most common form of disruption is individuals holding side discussions in the back rows that decay into laughing or snickering that interrupts class discussion. Cell Phones and Electronic Devices: Electronic devices have the potential to disrupt class. Please be considerate of others and leave the room if you need to use your phone. Use of cell phones during class time is prohibited because it is distracting to the instructor and other students, it disrupts the class, and it is not appropriate for an individual seeking to enter the workforce. Use of cell phones during class will result in final grade reductions of 10% for each infraction. Computers are allowed for the sole purpose of taking notes. Students with Disabilities: MSU Billings is committed to providing equal access. If you anticipate barriers related to the format or requirements of this course, please meet with me so that we can discuss ways to ensure your full participation in the course. If you determine that disability-related accommodations are necessary, please contact Disability Support Services ( ; located in the Tech Building, room A008). We can then plan how best to coordinate your accommodations. Academic Support Center (ASC) The City College Academic Support Center (ASC) is open Monday/Wednesday from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Tuesday/Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The ASC is located in the Tech Building in the Learning Commons area in room A017. University Campus ASC is located in the Student Union Building (SUB) and is open Monday thru Thursday 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Friday 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Sunday evening 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Online tutoring hours will be Sunday thru Thursday Andrew D. Sullivan PPT 175 & PPT 176 Process Plant Sciences Lecture and Lab Page 2 of 7

3 from 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. (subject availability will vary) as well as by appointment available upon request. For further information, contact Rebekah Reger at Drop-In tutoring is offered at City College in MATH (088, 095, 098, 105, 108, 111, 114, 121, 143), READING, WRITING, COMPUTERS, CHEMISTRY, and A&P Safety: The University cannot make a determination whether or not an individual student should engage in dangerous, or potentially dangerous, activities that may pose a risk. That is the student s decision. The instructor will clearly advise students of the risk and make sure, to the best of their ability, that students understand and accept the risk. Students will be shown how to use all equipment safely, be instructed on the correct personal safety equipment to be worn, and will be asked demonstrate their ability to use the equipment safely and will follow industry procedures, standards and manufacture s recommendations. If a student is found using equipment in an unsafe manner or not using the correct personal protection equipment, the privilege of using the equipment or the facilities can be removed until the student can again demonstrate the ability to use it safely and comply with correct personal safety equipment. Noncompliance by a student may include a verbal or written reprimand or warning, a grade of F for the assignment or test involved, or a grade of F for the course. In the event of injury because of not following safe operation procedures and activities, Montana State University Billings will not be held responsible or liable. Safety Glasses or Goggles and appropriate foot/hand covering is required in all PPT labs at all times. Attendance: You need to come to class regularly and punctually because it benefits you now and in the future. Everyone knows this, but it is easy to let the issue of the day become an excuse. I have seen several students who let excuses interfere with duty with unfortunate consequences like unacceptable grades and lost job offers. Get into the practice of doing what you need to do for success starting today: come to class. In almost all cases, the successful PPT students are the ones who come to class punctually and regularly. Academic Issues and Grading: 1. Late work is not accepted. Meeting deadlines is of key importance to employers and the roles you are being prepared for. 2. Weekly problem sets will be assigned to build skills. These assignments will be graded and will generally be due at the end of the week. 3. Final lecture grades will be calculated according to the following scoring criteria: Test 1 20% Test 2 20% Final Exam 20% Weekly Assignments 40% 4. Final lab grades will be calculated according to the following scoring criteria: Andrew D. Sullivan PPT 175 & PPT 176 Process Plant Sciences Lecture and Lab Page 3 of 7

4 Lab Performance 100% 5. To help reduce lab group size, we will host the regularly scheduled sections at 9:00 am and 11:00 am on Friday, plus an additional section at 1:00 pm on Friday. The additional sections overlap with 2 nd year labs, but experience shows this works well. The regularly scheduled lab will take priority. Please consider spreading out uniformly to maximize the value you get from the labs. 6. Lab performance includes multiple dimensions. An important consideration will be safety. Any uncontrolled fires, burns, damage, or injury will prevent any group member from getting a "C" or better. "C" is acceptable, and these events are not acceptable. Keep each other safe. Don t break things. Following lab, school, and good practices count (such as reading MSDS sheets before working). Other dimensions of lab performance include accuracy, quality of work, and mastery of concepts. 7. Lab punctuality and participation are important. Being late to a lab section will result in material deductions in credit earned. This is necessary because either you miss the walkthrough or waste lab time to have it repeated. Credit will not be earned for observing a lab rather than participating it in. You may be asked questions to verify participation, and credit will not be awarded if there is evidence that participation was less than adequate. 8.
