Course Overview

This course introduces process plant design and simulation principles for chemical engineers. It covers material and energy balances, steady-state modelling with software such as Aspen HYSYS or CHEMCAD, economic analysis, and process optimization for safety, efficiency, and sustainability. Participants will learn to create process flowsheets (PFDs), develop piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), and size equipment like reactors, heat exchangers, and separators. Practical exercises will focus on troubleshooting, performance evaluation, and integrating control systems for industrial-scale operations.
