COURSE OVERVIEW

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 

 

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Process Design for Process Plant Equipment. It covers the process plant design, types of process equipment and fundamentals of process flow diagrams (PFD); the material and energy balances, process design parameters and process simulation tools; the types of heat exchangers, heat transfer mechanisms, sizing of heat exchangers and thermal expansion and stress considerations; and the selection of heat exchanger materials, energy efficiency in heat exchanger design and pressure vessel design. 

 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the design codes for pressure vessels, material selection for pressure vessels, design of storage tanks and stress analysis and structural integrity; the non-destructive testing (NDT) methods, hydrostatic testing and leakage tests, inspection frequency and documentation and maintenance strategies and reliability; the types and applications of pumps including pumping systems design; the compressors, turbines, mechanical seals and bearings and safety considerations in rotating equipment; and the advanced process equipment sizing, integration of equipment in the overall process design and safety in process design.
