There exists a wide gap between the expectations of the industry from the academics and what knowledge is actually imparted during graduation and its effectiveness. Due to high attrition rates or otherwise, the engineering companies are increasingly unwilling to impart the basic training in process design and are instead expecting that the fresh engineering students have prior knowledge in process engineering design. The design courses developed and delivered by us focus on delivering what is industrially relevant. With our wide process engineering experience in chemical, petrochemical and Oil&Gas areas, we know what the exact expectations of the industry are from the chemical engineers to be able to work as Process Engineer. Apart from the best quality of the training that is ensured in this course, it also provides a specific direction for the student to tackle with the 'unknowns' that one can always expect to come across while working on a project.

The knowledge in process design is helpful for process engineers working in the engineering, operations and HSE alike. Similarly, sound knowledge in process engineering design can help the engineers working in supervisory and managerial capacity.

A wide range of topics covers in the course is described below.

• Guidance for interviews

• Introduction to Material and Heat Balance

• Introduction to Process Flow Diagrams (PFD) development

• Line sizing for various services

• Basics of pipe selection and of mechanical design of equipment

• Introduction to Piping and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID) development

• Introduction to Cause and Effect diagrams (Trip – Interlock schedule) development

• Instrumentation and process control

• Selection, sizing and specifications of various process equipment such as pumps, compressors, distillation columns, heat exchangers and multiphase separators

• Sizing of control valves, restriction orifice plates, pressure relief devices

• Introduction to the contents of Basic Engineering Package (BEP)

• Reactor design aspects

• Sizing of various utilities and selection

• Introduction to HAZOP Review

• Special aspects of design of batch and continuous processes

• Introduction to process simulations

• Heat exchanger design

• Vacuum systems

• Introduction to Hazardous area classification

• Process Safeguarding

We invariably end up covering a lot more than the topics listed above. The problem assignments covered during the training are directly relevant to the industry.

Duration:

• Full time or Week-end batch: Approximately 30 Working days
  Week-end batch can be conducted on Sundays or on both Saturdays & Sundays.
  10 a.m. to  6 p.m.

Joining schedule: One can join at any mutually convenient time. Please mention your preferred joining date in the Registration/Enquiry Form.

Course fee: Indian participants: Rs. 50,000.

Concession: Normal total fees for the two courses PCE-01 and PTCS-01(Process simulations) are Rs. 68,000. For those who intend to take both the courses together, the fees is further reduced to Rs. 50,000, thus availing handsome concession of Rs. 18,000 in the total fees.

Non-Indian participants can find the fees in our detailed reply sent to them after they complete the online Registration/Enquiry Form.

Who can join? Degree or Diploma holders in Chemical Engineering. This course would also be useful for mechanical engineers who have spent significant time in process industry.

Due to popular demand, we have now introduced an extension to this course by name of PCE-01A. This course will be offered to those who take the course PCE-01 and want to get more insight to producing various Process Engineering deliverables. For more details of this course, please click here.

Who's trained with us? : For you information, those who participated in various training programmes offered by us have worked with various reputed organizations from India and abroad. You can refer to a brief list of such organizations from India and Abroad. We are sure you would not like to be left out.
