Abstract:WebLab means access to real labs and devices through the Internet. The goal is
to enable interactivity with devices, control and monitoring, and cooperative work.
Therefore, this work aims to present the DistLab, a distillation column that was adapted for batch operation remotely, attending the demands of Education 4.0. A distillation column is used to separate components from a liquid mixture by volatility difference and it is applied to many industrial processes. For example, production of alcoholic beverages and the separation of petroleum. Thus, the engineering courses, mostly chemical engineering, will have a product at the service of the academic community that will allow remote access to the experiment. |
