An Automated Statistical Process Control Study of Inline Mixing Using Spectrophotometric Detection
Dickey, Michael D.; Stewart, Michael D.; Willson, C. Grant
Journal of Chemical Education, v83 n1 p110-113 Jan 2006
An experiment is described, which is designed for a junior-level chemical engineering "fundamentals of measurements and data analysis" course, where students are introduced to the concept of statistical process control (SPC) through a simple inline mixing experiment. The students learn how to create and analyze control charts in an effort to evaluate the benefits of a mixer.
