Process Plant Engineering

Process plant design involves the creation and development of industrial facilities that are used for the production of various products or the processing of raw materials. It encompasses a broad range of disciplines including chemical engineering mechanical engineering electrical engineering and civil engineering. The goal of process plant design is to design a safe efficient and cost-effective facility that meets the specific requirements of the process or industry it serves.This book teaches the foundations of plant design and demonstrates how to combine design principles with business considerations to create a detailed plan. From start to finish it encompasses every aspect of process plant engineering explaining the responsibilities and tasks of each involved party. It delves into engineering procurement construction project management contract administration project control and health safety and environment (HSE) considerations all within the context of global contracting and business norms. This comprehensive guide ensures that all vital components of plant design are covered resulting in a final specification that meets both technical requirements and commercial goals.
