  Lecturer: Muhammad Abbas bin Ahmad Zaini, Dr. Semester: Semester 2 2010/11 Synopsis: This course highlights the principles and methodology of product and process design. It emphasizes the key elements of design, i.e., process creation and synthesis, analysis, evaluation and optimization, to generate a inherently safe, economic and environmentally friendly process. The course also features the use of simulation tool for designing a process. Course Outcomes: Students should be able to: Describe and apply the 5M approach in process creation and relate it to the detailed systematic steps for product and process design Synthesis a process using the 5 keys synthesis steps from Rudd, Powers & Sirrola (1973) Apply simulation tools to solve simple process design Evaluate process and separation system selection decision using heuristics approach by taking into account the aspects of safety, economy and environment Target and design maximum heat recovery network using pinch analysis method Generate preliminary equipment sizing and costing using equipment cost correlations and indices Define and formulate optimization problem and solve it using graphical method and Excel solver
