Models are excellent teaching tools. During1996-1997, I have taken the initiative to revitalize the physical model of ARCO’s hydro-desulfurization plant, which was donated to the department many years ago, but was never used.Through my industrial contacts, I obtained the process flow diagram from ARCO and workedwith several students cleaning and re
