LabAbstractThere is currently a need for innovative educational experiences that unify and reinforcefundamental principles at the interface between physics, molecular biology, and the chemicalsciences. These experiences also empower students by helping them recognize how thisknowledge can be applied to develop new products and technologies that benefit society. Thispresentation describes our efforts to address this need by creating innovative hands-on labactivities that introduce chemical engineering students to molecular biology by challenging themto harness natural convection phenomena to perform DNA replication via the polymerase chainreaction (PCR).Experimentally, we have constructed convective PCR stations incorporating a simple design forloading and

Novel alternatives are the spinning disk reactor [1] andthe rotating packed bed reactor [2]. These reactors utilize high gravity to enhance mass transferin the reactor, leading to significant performance improvements over batch reactors. This modulewill provide instruction on the phenomena exploited to achieve the improvements in the reactorand its basic configuration. An overview of technology
