Operator Training and Simulation Fundamentals Distillation Operation

This 5-day self-paced online course teaches operators to develop competencies for distillation operations. Using a generic distillation simulation, participants learn fundamental operating knowledge, unit operations, and how to operate under normal and abnormal conditions. The course consists of orientation, four lessons on key process variables, disturbances, and start-up/shutdown procedures. Participants practice on a virtual control console to improve skills. The course aims to enhance safety, reliability and performance for operators and engineers.
