Omschrijving	Gaining understanding of flow sheeting software of a process. A process is a system of equipment (functional units) connected by pipes and cables to its surroundings and is usually controlled from a central place. Despite the large number of different processes there are many similarities between the functional units and their configuration within the process, reflecting in the design. This module will discuss how a conceptual process design is set up and subsequently implemented into a process design, based on basic data retrieved from research. Considerations about operability, controllability, maintainability, economics and QESH (Quality, Environment, Safety and Health) will be dealt with. On the basis of one or several familiar chemical processes, a process will be modeled with the help of a computer program. Students will first deduce the general substances, chemistry, technology and process information from published literature, which will then be used to set up a working model / mass and energy balance.
