impact of green engineering on both R&D andmanufacturing in several chemical industries. This has been accomplished through industry-university partnerships with pharmaceutical and petrochemical companies. Several grants fromthe US Environmental Protection Agency have supported initiatives in green chemistry,engineering and design. These projects have the broader goal of supporting sustainability in thechemical industry.IntroductionToo often the teaching of a technical subject like green engineering is limited to an individualclass experience or one dimensional laboratory or design experience. The teaching of greenengineering in the curriculum is greatly enhanced by active participation of students throughoutthe curriculum and in real-world

The first laboratory exercise on the hydraulic characterization ofmedia was fully developed and the experiments were based on the experience/knowledge gainedduring the building and testing of the pilot. Finally, in the final recommendation section of thecapstone report, the students proposed several research themes/projects for undergraduate andgraduate to undertake, as well as STEM related activities at Northeastern University.Physical: Media choice is paramount when it comes to designing the most efficient systempossible. In this lab we will analyze the relationship between media size, permeability
