Plant Design CHEN 451 - kau

1 Plant Design CHEN 451 Engineering Design of new chemical and petrochemical plants and the expansion or revision of existing ones require the use of engineering principles and theories combined with a practical realization of the limits imposed by industrial conditions. A successful engineer needs more than a knowledge and understanding of the fundamental sciences and the related engineering subjects such as thermodynamics, reaction kinetics, and computer technology. The engineer must also have the ability to apply this knowledge to practical situations for the purpose of accomplishing something that will be beneficial to society. There are three parameters that must be defined namely: 1- Design : Design is a creative activity and is defined as the synthesis, the putting together of ideas to achieve a desired purpose.

4. Information on potential sites where the plant might be located, including climate data, seismic conditions, and infrastructure availability. 5. Information on the conditions, availability, and price of utility services such as fuel (gas), steam, cooling water, process air, process water, and electricity, that will be needed to run the process.
