| Syllabus: |
This unit will not be available until 2006. To introduce students to the fundamental concepts and principles of process synthesis and design, and the use of flowsheet simulators (eg HYSYS) to assist in process design, and the application of economics in venture analysis. The contents will include process synthesis; process flowsheeting; unit operation models and solution strategies; degree of freedom analysis of the process; tearing and flowsheet partitioning (structure graphs of process models), design specifications; state observability and controllability; model simplification and reduction. The use of HYSYS in process design and application of knowledge learned to design and cost a basic chemical process in a simple design project. |
