Course Description

The purpose of this course is to study the interrelation of process equipment and process systems as they are used in normal conditions. ADVISORY: PTEC C113. Transfer Credit: CSU.

Course Level Student Learning Outcome(s)

1. Given a scenario, create a Systems Processing Flow Diagram and compare systems by function and category.
2. Based on the Systems Processing Flow Diagram, select the optimum systems that provide the most efficient processing under normal conditions.

Course Objectives

• 1. Describe and utilize process drawings, process controls, and energy/material balances associated with process systems.
• 2. Identify and explain the combinations of equipment into typical unit operations (reaction and separation systems) and the relationships among the different pieces of the equipment.
• 3. Identify and explain the combinations of equipment into common utility systems (cooling, heating, gas, etc.) and how they support the various unit operations within a plant.
• 4. Discuss the specific safety, heath, and environmental concerns (examples: relief and flare systems, emergency shutdowns, etc.) associated with process systems.
• 5. Explain the operators responsibilities for the safe and efficient operation of systems, including the interaction among the various pieces of equipment within these systems.
