Introduction to CHEN 5253-001 Process Design II Terry A. Ring Chemical Engineering University of Utah

Welcome Back Hope you enjoyed your Holiday Break. Your last Semester in Chemical Engineering! Start the count down to the big paycheck! Stay Healthy! There are some nasty influenza viruses out there.

Design Sequence

Design I and II are Different – Open ended problems – Requires creative thinking – Projects with reports and deadlines that are strictly enforced. – There is never one right answer! There is a most cost effective and operationally functional answer, however.

Course Description CHEN 5253 Process Design II (3) Prerequisite: CHFEN 4253 and 4903, Major standing.    Computer-aided process design and simulation; solution of complex recycle processes and modeling of process equipment. Comprehensive design project leading to preparation of a process design and economic evaluation report.

Syllabus - Grading No Final Exam (only a final Design Report) Homework: Weekly Design Reports (Submit via Canvas) 50% Comprehensive Design Report Planning and Weekly Status Report Memo’s 5% Written Report of Comprehensive Design Project 45% Submitted via Canvas (The comprehensive design report can be a team activity.) Students should be able to independently set up, solve, and explain solutions all problems. Students are encouraged to discuss with other students about how to approach and solve the homework problems and develop process models. Although collaboration is encouraged, each student must perform his/her own work and submit a unique, individual memo report. No points will be given to students whose assignment submissions mirror those of other students.

Syllabus – Legal Stuff Addressing Sexual Misconduct There are more details on the Syllabus. Addressing Sexual Misconduct If you or someone you know has been harassed or assaulted, you are encouraged to report it to the Title IX Coordinator in the Office of Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action, 135 Park Building, 801-581-8365, or the Office of the Dean of Students, 270 Union Building, 801-581-7066.

Course Description AICHE Contest Problem – 30 days Before Spring Break Course content is divided into ten weekly subject areas after a review of process economics. Each subject area involves (1) weekly reading material and (2) a weekly homework assignment – most are memo reports. After Spring Break AICHE Contest Problem – 30 days 3 Member Team Individual Review of Process Economics Process Creation and Process Simulation Heuristics Reactors Separation Systems Reactor, Separation and Recycle Effects of Impurities in Processes Heat and Power Integration Flow Sheet Optimization Plant-wide Control Sequential Batch Processing Project Management

Is Design Easy or Hard? Good Software Many “right” answers Design is Easy! Design is Hard! Good Software You don’t have to think so hard! Many “right” answers You are never wrong! Everyone thinks that they can do it Although few do it well Some get fired for their designs! Needs to be practiced Lots of rules 53 Rules of Thumb just for Aspen Lots of constraints Requires creativity Hyper focus on details Iterative process with lots of recycle loops Difficult to learn from books, lectures and videos Experience is the only real teacher
