COURSE OVERVIEW

This course covers the fundamental concepts of chemical engineering and provide you with a solid working knowledge associated with it. If you are a non-chemical engineer, this course will enable you to confidently talk to and work effectively with chemical engineers and process equipment. Many technical professionals today find themselves working with large-scale chemical processes even-though they do not have formal training in Chemical Engineering.
The course intends to fill this gap and provide you with this knowledge in the chemical engineering fundamentals and the ability to apply this knowledge to specify, design, operate, maintain and trouble-shoot chemical processes.
The course also discusses the specifications of pumps and heat exchangers; the mass transfer phenomena; the simple process calculations; troubleshooting process equipment and providing fixes; the process design activities; the process drawings; the safety guidelines to a process or chemical plant; and the basic chemical engineering jargon and terminology.
