Utilities play a key role in the Chemical Process Industry to carry out major chemical reactions at temperatures higher than room temperature. The contribution of utility is around 10% of the cost of the final product. The utility is either available in the plant itself or comes from nearby plants or some other sources. Looking into their importance and significant cost contribution, a detailed study of various utility systems is inevitable and hence important.
The present course is aimed to cover almost all the utilities utilized in various Chemical Process Industries enriched with practical experience gained over the years. The course includes an introduction to utilities, and the design of utilities such as compressed air, nitrogen, HVAC, electrical power, fuel thermal, thermic fluid, water, steam, condensate, refrigeration, safety relief, flare, miscellaneous systems, and effluent treatment plant which are covered in detail. The material of construction of components belonging to the utilities, procurement strategy of the relevant components, the relevant engineering design documents, and process deliverables are covered. The completion of the course enables the learner to design the given utility system to fulfill the process requirement.
