Chemical Process Design and Economics

The document outlines the course objectives, textbook, references, grading structure, and schedule for a chemical engineering course on process design and analysis. The course objectives are to understand process flow diagrams, economic analysis of chemical plants including cost estimation and financial analysis, technical analysis of chemical processes using heuristics, and synthesizing a process using a simulator. The textbook is Analysis, Synthesis, and Design of Chemical Processes. There will be two major exams, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. The course will be graded based on exams, quizzes, assignments, class participation, and attendance.
