Key to the realisation of smart packaging is the development of appropriate sensors, coatings and integration with electronics. This project will research appropriate sensors for food spoilage, complimentary active coatings and then their integration with chipless RFID. This project will also address the scale up to volume production. Gravure printing is seen as the most likely candidate process for this technology, although the offset and flexo printing will be included in the assessment process. (dyfarnwyd 2023)

EG-206 Instrumentation Measurement and Control
This module covers the fundamental operating principles behind the various types of measuring instruments, pumps and valves in common use in the processing industries, and the criteria for correctly selecting and specifying them. Concepts of process control in terms of architecture and control modes are covered from a mainly qualitative point of view as well as analogue and digital signal types. Drawing of P&IDs is built upon.
-
EG-230 Process and Pilot Plant Operations B
This module supports and amplifies lectures by providing practical experience of process equipment, its operation and performance. The Unit Operations Laboratory (UOL) experiments are carried out in pairs. Overall, each pair of students will conduct 4 different experiments on 4 different pieces of pilot plant apparatus and will be required to produce 4 experimental reports. In each session, each pair of students will conduct various experiments on a piece of pilot plant equipment to obtain experimental data which they will need to analyse and write-up within a lab report. Online videos of will be provided giving guidance on writing reports, handling error and risk assessment.
-
EGA332 Process Equipment Selection and Control
The module also builds upon topics covered in EG-206 (Instrumentation, Measurement and Control) and will focus on two distinct areas: (1) Ancillaries to main process equipment, with emphasis on pump selection, line sizing, pressure drop calculation, control of flowrate, pressure relief calculations and utilities. (2) Quantitative aspects of process control including numerical methods for defining control loops and their components as well as control loop design for P&IDs using rules based and numerical approaches.

EGT202 Chemical Engineering Tutorials: Year 2
This module comprises the academic tutorial programme for Year 2 students on Chemical Engineering degree programmes. Through individual and group tutorials, students will reflect on their academic progress, respond to feedback, identify development needs and opportunities, and plan activities that support their studies and future professional practice. The module also includes activities relating to continuing professional development (CPD), engineering ethics, and equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI), providing evidence of relevant AHEP 4 learning outcomes. Although the module carries no academic credit, students must satisfactorily complete the required tutorial and professional-development activities. Engagement is assessed on a pass/fail basis, and the module must be passed to permit progression to the next year of study.
