The course is the second stage of the final year plant design project. This course can be termed as the pinnacle of the chemical engineering curriculum as it is designed to challenge students to combine engineering knowledge, principles and tools used in chemical engineering to design an integrated chemical process plant.
The series of the lectures is set up to develop an understanding of the factors influencing the economic success of our concepts and let us know if we can earn money with them and if the investors can generate a return on their investment when using these new ideas. Based on practical examples and interactive discussion between teacher and student, the concepts of commercial evaluation will get transparent and understandable with the target that the student should be in a position to prepare his process and project evaluation.
This course meets needs for experts in security assessment and environmental protection in chemical industry.
