You Should Attend If :

You work in a chemical-processing facility and need an overview of the basic mechanics and chemistry behind the process equipment you work with on a daily basis.

This course will help operations personnel communicate effectively with the process engineers and technical managers they collaborate with by gaining a basic understanding of the operational factors and design equations that are used by chemical engineers. It is also ideal for designers, technicians, purchasing personnel, and others who would benefit from improved communication with the engineers with whom they work.

You Can Expect To:

• Familiarize yourself with the chemical, physical principles, and design equations that form the basis for the design of equipment at your site.
• Learn the terminology used at your facility.
• Understand the functions of key unit operations within your facility’s processes.

Gain a basic understanding of key concepts such as:

• Mass and energy balances
• Reaction kinetics
• Variable affecting heat transfer
• Fluid flow
• Evaporation and crystallization
• Distillation
• Absorption and extraction
• Humidification
• Drying
• Crystallization
• Filtration and separation
• Process control

Note: This course is recommended for individuals with no technical background and up to 3 years’ experience in a plant or working with chemical engineers.
