What this paper is about
Process Engineering Design 2 covers the aspects process design to produce valuable products and commodities. Important aspects of design include process selection, process economics, process safety, process simulation and optimisation, and detailed process equipment design will be covered. Design teams of 2 to 3 students will be issued with a brief to design a process to mass produce a specified product. Principles of chemical, process, and bioprocess engineering will be utilised in the development and design of the process.
The learning outcomes for this paper are linked to Washington Accord graduate attributes WA1-WA11. Explanation of the graduate attributes can be found at: https://www.ieagreements.org/
