SECOND SEMESTER 2016-2017
Course Handout for Process Design Principles - II

Course No. : CHE F343

Course Title : Process Design Principles - II
Instructor-in-charge : S. D. Manjare
Instructor (Lectures/Tutorial) : S. D. Manjare / Shubhangi Singh

1. COURSE DESCRIPTION

Review of process synthesis, design and sizing of equipment of piping, fluid moving
devices, flow meters, heat exchangers and distillation column. Cost accounting and
capital cost estimation, manufacturing costs and profitability analysis, optimization
studies.

2. SCOPE AND OBJECTIVE OF THE COURSE

The course aims to teach the detailed design and equipment sizing of fluid moving
devices and separation towers. Further it presents the methods for making
preliminary estimates of capital costs, manufacturing costs, and profitability analysis.
This course will also discuss the fundamental principles of optimization and
applications of these principles to optimize the most promising flowhseet during the
process design.
