Beginner level
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental concepts and applications of chemical engineering. Designed for professionals from diverse backgrounds, this course bridges the gap between theory and practice, enabling participants to gain a solid understanding of chemical processes, equipment, and safety considerations relevant to various industries.
Through a combination of theoretical lectures and hands-on activities, participants will explore key topics such as material and energy balances, phase behaviour, fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, separation processes, reactor engineering, and process instrumentation and control. The course also delves into the critical areas of process safety, risk analysis, and sustainable development practices, equipping participants with the knowledge and skills to make informed decisions and contribute to the overall efficiency and safety of their operations.
By attending this course, participants will develop a strong foundation in chemical engineering principles, enabling them to communicate effectively with chemical engineers, interpret process flow diagrams, and apply their newfound knowledge to address real-world challenges. The course content is tailored to meet the needs of professionals from various fields, including process engineers, mechanical engineers, maintenance engineers, project engineers, operations managers, environmental engineers, health and safety professionals, quality control professionals, regulatory affairs specialists, and technical sales representatives.

TRAINING OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
Apply fundamental chemical engineering concepts like material/energy balances, phase behaviour, real gas behaviour, heat transfer, fluid flow, and reaction engineering to perform calculations.
Understand the principles and design aspects of core chemical engineering operations like separation processes, heat exchangers, and process instrumentation/control.
Appreciate the importance of process safety by learning from past incidents, identifying hazards, and applying risk analysis techniques.
Comprehend the role of chemical engineering in addressing global challenges like climate change and sustainable development.
Develop the ability to interpret technical documentation like chemical formulae, reactions, and process/instrumentation diagrams relevant to the process industries.
TARGET AUDIENCE
This course is designed for professionals from diverse backgrounds who interact with chemical processes or work alongside chemical engineers. This course is intended for those working in the process industries, but without a background in science or technology, the program will help the participants better understand the chemical engineering workplace. With a focus on the practical rather than the theoretical, participants will develop a foundation in chemical engineering, allowing them to converse more knowledgably with chemical engineers. The target audience includes, but is not limited to, the following job titles:
Mechanical Engineers
Maintenance Engineers
Project Engineers
Operations Managers
Environmental Engineers
Health and Safety Professionals
Quality Control Professionals
Technical Sales Representatives
Infrastructure Managers
