[Topic 1] Intro And Project Development Flashcards
This includes all engineering aspects involved in the development of either a new, modified, or expanded industrial plant.
Plant Design
A role of chemical engineer where he/she designs individual pieces of equipment or develops a plant layout.
Design Engineer
A role of chemical engineer where he/she specializes in the economic aspects of the design.
Cost Engineer
5 Ms of Concept Development in a plant design that will lead to success.

Why research outputs like plant design are shelved?
Because many researchers lack plans and vision of mass production and creation of large-scale opportunities.
Simplified stages of process development in plant design.
- Inception - Design Objectives
- Setting the Design Basis
- Generation of Possible Designs
- Project Development
- Economic Evaluation, Optimization, and Selection
- Detailed Design and Equipment Selection
- Procurement, Construction, and Operation
What happens in Process Section?
- Process evaluation
- Flowsheeting
- Equipment specifications
What are involved in specialist design sections?
- Vessels
- Control and instruments
- Compressors and turbines pumps
- Layout
- Civil work structures buildings
- Utilities
- Piping Valves
- Electrical
- Heat exchangers and fire heaters
Two types of management framework
- Waterfall Design Framework
- Agile/Iterative Design Framework
Process of Waterfall Design framework
- Detailed Requirements
- Design and analysis
- Implementation
- QA/Evaluation
- Deployment with presence of risk
- Value
Process of Agile/Iterative Design framework
- Project Start
- Iterations
- Project End
Each iteration comprises the following step cycle
1. Detailed requirements
2. Design & Analysis
3. Implementation and Developer Testing
4. QA/Acceptance testing
5. Deployment
6. Evaluation/Prioritization
It originated from sales department.
Inception
A result of a customer request.
Inception
To meet a competing product.
Inception
This involves the feasibility process and preliminary market surveys.
Design Basis for Preliminary Evaluation
What are included in the feasibility process during design basis for preliminary evaluation.
- Physical and chemical processes involved
- Economic aspects
An aspect in the design basis for preliminary evaluation that needs analysis of the market.
