CHEE 470 Design of Manufacturing Processes F | 6.25


Lecture: 3
Lab: 3
Tutorial: 0.25
This course will consolidate the necessary skills essential to carrying out a comprehensive industrial process design including a technical and financial analysis. The simulation software, and the scope of the design problem will be introduced during extra classes in the first week. Class workshops will deal with such diverse topics as health, safety and environmental compliance, optimization techniques and capital cost estimation. The students will develop a competency in the use of and a recognition of the limitations of “State-of-the-Art” simulation software. In addition to the process design, which will represent current technology, a capital cost estimate will be prepared as part of a rigorous assessment of the profitability of the project. In lieu of a final exam, student groups will be expected to prepare a formal design report and make a formal presentation.
