Course objective:

• To train chemical engineers who has the knowledge to design chemical processes and make projects.
• To teach basic methods and computer-aided design applications which are used for equipment and process design.
• To teach the methods of calculation of fixed investment and operating costs.
• To introduce students to design applications in the industry.

Learning outcomes:

• To make the selection of a process of a chemical manufacturing process , to do market research on a global, to examine the economic parameters and national scale, to prepare the feasibility report.
• To create the flow diagram of a selected plant and to determine the inlet and outlet flows in the processes of the plant.
• To establish mass and energy conservation equations for a chemical process
• To make the process and equipment designs for a chemical production plant using computer programs and to write the design report in a foreign language
• To make the assessments of a process in terms of environment, safety and sustainability
• To do individual and team work
