Description
This course teaches the student the basic steps involved in designing chemical processing plants, starting from a simple statement of concept through to the development of block diagrams, a process flowsheet and finally a piping and instrumentation diagram based on fundamental plant and equipment design and control principles. Various aspects of process design and analysis will be integrated with this including process economics, process simulation, control system design and risk analysis tools such as HAZOP, HAZAN and HACCP. Specific requirements for particular process types, such as food processing, will be addressed. This course is part of the chemical engineering design stream and thus the submission of a satisfactory design portfolio is part of the requirements for successful completion of the course.This course replaces CHEN3067 and CHEN3068.
