Course Objectives		1. to use their knowledge of engineering economics in evaluating the economics (investment costs and operating costs, profitability) of a chemical process 2. to apply the methods used in constructing the optimization problems to find the optimum solutions in process design. 3. to apply typical control and regulation strategies in process design . 4. to develop awareness of the ethical foundation of the engineering profession 5. to discuss their designs in term of safety and impact upon the environment 6. to use chemical process design simulation software (Aspen Plus, ChemCAD) to design new processes and to improve existing chemical processes 7. to perform effective oral and written communication, and team work
Course Description		Estimation of capital and manufacturing costs. Engineering economic analysis. Process optimization. Process troubleshooting and debottlenecking. Process control strategies concept. Health, Safety and the Environment. Ethics and professionalism. Applying the knowledge gained to a range of design and operation scenarios.
Course Outcomes		1. understand the essential elements of the process design and demonstrate ability to design a chemical process or product 2. estimate the capital investment, cost of production, depreciation, and cash flows of chemical engineering processes 3. make decisions about the profitability of chemical engineering processes by applying discounted profitability analysis including net present value, internal rate of return, and discounted payback period 4. define the structure of optimization problems, define the objective function, and apply concepts of topological and parametric optimization to chemical processes 5. apply the basic control methods to chemical processes by establishing the control goals and identifying the variables to be controlled, specify the required instrumentation and final elements to ensure that well-tuned control is achieved 6. appreciate the central role of ethical behavior in issues facing the chemical industry including an understanding of safe handling of chemicals, environmental issues and key issues 7. be familiar with the hazard identification and assessment procedures for process safety 8. understand the use and limitations of process simulation software (AspenPlus, ChemCAD etc.) in the process design problems 9. improve team work skills, and oral/ written communication skills in English for technical audiences
