Course Objective 本課程以化工程序中所包含的製程如蒸餾、熱交換器、攪拌、泵、機械分離等，由質量、能量及動量均衡開始講述，然後探討程序設計時使用的流程圖及其符號、成本估算、管線配置、流體輸送、化工單元規格設計等。 Application of chemical engineering science techniques to design of chemical processes. Comprehensive problems are assigned which include heat, material and economic balances, unit operations and processes, kinetics and thermodynamics. The major responsibility is placed on individuals or small groups for the optimum design and selection of equipment, and for the calculations of required sizes, plant layout, and cost analyses.

Course Schedule Week 1: Physical Property Methods, Parameters and Data Week 2: Basics of Process Flowsheet Simulation Week 3: Simulation of Heat Exchangers Week 4: Simulation with Model Analysis Tools Week 5: Simulation of Separators and Columns Week 6: Simulation of Chemical Reactors Week 7: Simulation of Chemical Plants (Progress Report) Week 8: Process Design, Integration and Economics Week 9: Midterm Proposal Week 10: Process Design Workshop Week 11: Process Design Workshop (Progress Report) Week 12: Process Design Workshop Week 13: Process Design Workshop (Progress Report) Week 14: Process Design Workshop Week 15: Process Design Workshop (Progress Report) Week 16: Process Design Workshop Week 17: Process Design Workshop (Progress Report) Week 18: Final Report
