Objectives
On completing this part of the course, you should:
Understand how to go about assembling design data and
creating a preliminary data base.
Be able to implement the steps in creating flowsheets
involving reactions, separations, and T-P change operations.
In so doing, many alternatives are identified that can be
assembled into a synthesis tree that contains the most
promising alternatives.
Know how to select the principal pieces of equipment and to
create a detailed process flowsheet, with a material and
energy balance and a list of major equipment items.
