Objective
After completing this course, you will be able to
• describe the significance of process design in process integration
• present main processes and machinery of process industries
• work out the dimensioning of process machinery and compute steady states
• define dynamic flow, heat and mass balances for simulations
• identify authority obligations in process design.
Content
How are you able to design processes by taking into account technical, economic, safety-related and environment-related aspects?
What kinds of machines are used in processes and how do they work?
How do you compute the capacity of a process and its steady state?
How do you create a dynamic process model and make a simulation program?
Which processes need authority obligations?
