Free Online Course: Process Equipment Design provided by Swayam is a comprehensive online course, which lasts for 12 weeks long. The course is taught in English and is free of charge. Upon completion of the course, you can receive an e-certificate from Swayam. Process Equipment Design is taught by Prof. Shabina Khanam.

Overview
  • Chemical process plants include a number of important equipment such as reactors, distillation columns, absorbers, heat exchangers, evaporators, crystallizers, etc. Design of such equipment should be carried out a priory to set-up a process plant and thus, it is the basic step in a chemical process. The present course enables one to learn about the complete process design of Heat Exchanger, Condenser, Reboiler, Crystallizer, Evaporator, Packed column and Distillation column. Further, mechanical design of distillation column is also illustrated in this course. INTENDED AUDIENCE :Undergraduate students of Chemical Engineering. However, this course will also be helpful for those who have substantial industrial experience while working in chemical processes and designing process equipment.PREREQUISITES : Basic knowledge of Heat Transfer and Mass transferINDUSTRIES SUPPORT :Any chemical process plant
