Egységmveleteket, which translates to "unit operations" in English, is a fundamental concept in chemical engineering and related fields. It refers to the basic steps that occur in many chemical and physical processes. These operations are the building blocks from which more complex processes are designed and analyzed. Examples of unit operations include distillation, evaporation, filtration, absorption, and drying. Each unit operation involves a distinct physical change or separation, such as changing the phase of a substance, separating components of a mixture, or transferring heat. Understanding unit operations allows engineers to simplify complex industrial processes into manageable stages, enabling them to design, optimize, and troubleshoot equipment and systems. The concept was popularized by Arthur D. Little in the early 20th century. By analyzing a process in terms of its constituent unit operations, engineers can select appropriate equipment, determine operating conditions, and predict performance. This systematic approach is crucial for the efficient and safe production of chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food products, and many other manufactured goods. The effectiveness of a large-scale industrial process often depends on the efficient design and integration of individual unit operations.
