The course is intended as a follow-up of "Process and System Engineering" course but oriented preferably to the process design. Students would get an idea of tasks and types of process design, the methodology, information sources, tools and control of a process project. Another part of the course concerns typical parts of the process, especially reaction and separation nodes. A self-standing part is devoted to heat exchangers and their utilization for the heat integration. The process economics is presented as an important task for a process engineer as well as the analysis of process safety and the impact on environment.

Students will be able to:
Formulate the tasks of process design on different levels (from preliminary to detailed design) Use various tool as simulation, balancing and optimization during the design of a process Provide process integration, especially the heat integration employing pinch-point methods Design various equipment from the process engineering view, especially reactors, separation equipment, heat exchanger Use economic and environmental tools, evaluate the process economics and to propose the cash-flow Last update: Vaněk Tomáš (02.10.2013)
