CONTRIBUTIONS

 

Throughout this whole process of building this board game, I have given all my strength in contributing to this project. First of all I would like to thank all my teammates for all of their contribution on this project. As my part, I have established the website for the e-portfolio of our group and also producing questions for the group. A part from that I have also contributed ideas on building the board game, taking the video and uploading it up to you tube. In return I have learn a lot from completing my task so it’s a great experience.

 

REFLECTIONS ON THE SUBJECT

 

KRD(KINETIC REACTION & DYNAMICS)

 

Well KRD is a great subject for understanding how reaction takes place in a certain reactor, such as PFR, PBR, CSTR and also Batch reactor. For a raw substance to be converted to a product a certain product chemical reaction should take place and that is where we chemical engineers comes into play. We decide how and what reactor and condition is suitable for that process to occur. To be honest the tutorial isn’t helping at all because all the tutor does is just ask us to do the question by ourselves and no guidance at all so yea… In Dr Suzana’s class there a lot of things to learn and sometimes it’s a little difficult to comprehend things at first but then eventually when you get the hang of it is easier. I would like to thank Dr Suzana for being there and teaching us thoroughly about KRD and hope to get a good result in final exam.

 

CPDI&C (CONTROL PROCESS DYNAMICS INSTRUMENTATION & CONTROL)

 

Chemical Process Design Instrument & Control. By far the hardest subject compared to the other 3 subject for me at least. The reason being so is because this subject involves a lot of calculations and understanding on fundamentals of control process. There is a lot of derivation involved but with the help of the tutors and Dr Abbas I am able to comprehend little by little and gradually understand it. This subject is really tedious but with practise there is always a way. I would like to thank Dr Abbas for his patience and his endurance to teach us and hope to repay him in achieving good results.

 

PSLP (PROCESS SAFETY & LOSS PREVENTION)

 

Process Safety & Loss Prevention so far is being conducted by Dr. Dzulkarnain. This subject is related to safety and how to prevent any loss occurring to one’s plant. So far, we have learned a lot by doing some exercises in class. It is a good approach too I must say. The act of applying what we learned that day in class and do exercises give us the chance to know how we are going to solve the questions.”

 

 

REFLECTION ON THE BOARD GAME & THE QUESTIONS

 

First of all, we barely had idea on how to create such a game where it would involve all the 3 subject. But then as ideas starts flowing from each of my team members. So we tried cooperating our ideas into the board game and walla it finally fits in. From many people’s perspective it may seem boring cause who would want to play a game which involves calculation and brain storming but then again when you look at it from a different point of view it could be helpful for those who are interested and have knowledge on these kind of subject =) I also learned many new skills such as learning how to develop a website (wix.com), uploading our video content on to you tube and many more. So overall I am pretty happy with the final product of the game and I hope we will get good marks for it and our awesome lecturer Dr Tazli would like it.

 

KRD

 

Well for this subject we had to involve all 3 chapters from chapter 1 right up to chapter 3. So what we did was, we divided all the questions in ratio of 3.2.2(E,M,H) Hard-Medium-Easy. So it’s for everybody and no one is to be left out. Although the hard question it may be a bit challenging cause it involves higher order thinking questions. But overall it’s still playable.

`

CPDIC

 

For this subject it’s the same as previous 3.2.2(E,M,H) Hard-Medium-Easy. However for this subject I am afraid that it would be a harder to solve the questions compared to others, so for those who are good in CPDIC they might find this a little challenging.

 

PSLP

 

For this subject it’s the same as previous 3.2.2(E,M,H) Hard-Medium-Easy. We decided to put some real life incidents in this question and based on that we have the players to answer the question based on that. For the easy and medium questions it’s still easier to answer compared to the hard ones, because it involves lots of calculations.

 

SUGGESTION

 

 It would be nice if there are more field trips so that we can know what we are dealing with in the real life, how are we can relate theory and practical together and as plus point it would also prepare us for our internship.

 

KRD REFLECTION FOR ASSIGNMENT 2

CONTRIBUTIONS

 

Throughout this whole process, I have given all my strength in contributing to this project. First of all I would like to thank all my teammates for all of their contribution on this project. As my part, I have updated the website for the e-portfolio, literature review, mind maps, and also identifying the technology for vermicompost. A part from that I have also contributed ideas on solving problems related to the vermicompost. In return I have learn a lot from completing my task so it’s a great experience.

 

REFLECTIONS ON THE SUBJECT

 

KRD(KINETIC REACTION & DYNAMICS)

 

For the remaining chapters which is handled by Dr Tazli, it was a whole new level of education. I have never experienced such distinct style before. It involves the usage of technology (tablets, phone) which is quite brilliant, However some of us may find it distracting, implementing without prior notice. However it will take some time before everybody gets used to it. In Dr Tazli ‘s class there a lot of things to learn and sometimes it’s a little difficult to comprehend things at first but then eventually when you get the hang of it is easier. I would like to thank Dr Tazli for being there and teaching us thoroughly about KRD and hope to get a good result in final exam.

 

CPDI&C (CONTROL PROCESS DYNAMICS INSTRUMENTATION & CONTROL)

 

Chemical Process Design Instrument & Control. By far the hardest subject compared to the other 3 subject for me at least. The reason being so is because this subject involves a lot of calculations and understanding on fundamentals of control process. There is a lot of derivation involved but with the help of the tutors and Dr Haslinda,I am able to comprehend little by little and gradually understand it. This subject is really tedious but with practise there is always a way. I would like to thank Dr Haslinda for her patience and her endurance to teach us and hope to repay her in achieving good results.

 

PSLP (PROCESS SAFETY & LOSS PREVENTION)

 

Process Safety & Loss Prevention so far is being conducted by Dr. Dzulkarnain. This subject is related to safety and how to prevent any loss occurring to one’s plant. So far, we have learned a lot by doing some exercises in class. It is a good approach too I must say. The act of applying what we learned that day in class and do exercises give us the chance to know how we are going to solve the questions.”

 

 

REFLECTION ON THE ASSIGNMENT 2

 

Well who’d ever taught that we could complete such a huge task within that time limit, but with the grace of god and also understanding teammates we were able, to proceed quite far. I am happy that we are able to apply the knowledge that we have gained throughout the semester. From this mini project I am able to work more as a group member instead of a lone ranger. This project has taught me many valuable things, such as time management, giving and talking ideas, organizing things and many more. Although there were times, that we had no idea how to proceed due to some problems popping out at unwanted times, we still managed to get back on track. For example forming the transfer function was a huge hurdle! For us. Well everything ended smoothly and I am proud to be a member from group 19!.

 

KRD

 Applying the reaction kinetics in solving the reactor sizing of the reactor. By doing this mini project I am able to understand more thoroughly. This subject is quite easy to comprehend once you can get hold of the concept of it. Therefore understanding the fundamentals of it, is very important.

 

CPDIC

Applying the knowledge, in figuring out the transfer function of the reaction and also the PFD& P&ID. CPDIC is all about calculations. If you’re good in mathematics then you are able to ace this subject. 

 

PSLP

Applying the knowledge in doing the HAZOP table and also other safety precaution steps.

 

 

SUGGESTION

 

 My suggestion is still the same from the last, It would be nice if there are more field trips so that we can know what we are dealing with in the real life, how are we can relate theory and practical together and as plus point it would also prepare us for our internship.
