CHAPTER 1 – INTRODUCTION

Prof. Dr. Rogério Luz Pagano


INTRODUCTION

1. Introdução

“The engineer must also have the ability to apply


this knowledge to practical situations for the
purpose of accomplishing something that will be
beneficial to society.”

“It is important to keep in mind that process design


problems are open-ended and thus may have
many solutions that are profitable even when not
entirely optimal, yet meet the design constraints noted
above ”
Fonte: Peters and Timmerhaus (1998)
INTRODUCTION

Stages of plant design:


INTRODUCTION

“… the general term plant design includes all


engineering aspects involved in the development of
either a new, modified, or expanded industrial plant. In
this development, the chemical engineer will be
making economic evaluations of new processes,
designing individual pieces of equipment for the
proposed new venture, or developing a plant layout
for coordination of the overall operation.”

Design Engineer
INTRODUCTION

“Although one person cannot be an expert in all the


phases involved in plant design, it is necessary to be
acquainted with the general problems and
approach in each of the phases”

“… if the overall design project is to be successful,


close teamwork is necessary among the various
groups of engineers working on the different phases
of the project.”
INTRODUCTION

2. Considerações Gerais:

“… environmental protection, as well as the safety


and health needs…”

“… include plant location, plant layout, materials of


construction, structural design, utilities, buildings,
storage, materials handling, safety, waste disposal,
federal, state, and local laws or codes, and patents.”
INTRODUCTION

Process Design Development

“The basic idea may originate in the sales department,


as a result of a customer request, or to meet a
compenting product.”

“… the possibilities for a successful process is made


considering the physical and chemical operations
involved as well as the economic aspects. Next comes
the process-research phase including preliminary market
surveys, laboratory-scale experiments, and production
of research samples of the final product”
INTRODUCTION

“At this point, a pilot plant or a commercial


development plant may be constructed … usually
made from odd pieces of equipment… ”

“A complete market analysis is made, and samples


of the final product are sent to prospective
customers to determine if the product is
satisfactory and if there is a reasonable sales
potential. Capital-cost estimates for the proposed
plant are made.”
INTRODUCTION

“If the economic picture is still satisfactory, the


final process-design phase is ready to begin. All the
design details are worked out in this phase including
controls, services; piping layouts, firm price
quotations, specifications and designs for individual
pieces of equipment, and all the other design
information necessary for the construction of the
final plant.”

“Many projects are discarded as soon as the


preliminary investigation or research on the
original idea is completed.”
INTRODUCTION

“If no tangible return can be realized from the


investment, the proposal will be turned down.
Therefore, the engineer should have the ability to
eliminate unprofitable ventures before the
design project approaches a final-proposal stage.”

Skills: research, market analyses, computer


simulation, software programming, equipment design,
cost estimation, profitability analysis, and technical
communications.
INTRODUCTION

Flowsheet Development

“Preliminary process synthesis for each solution begins


with the designer creating flowsheets involving just the
reaction, separation, and temperature change and
pressure change operations, and selecting process
equipment in a task integration step. Only those
simplified flowsheets that provide a favorable gross
profit are retained...”

“The material and energy balances are generally


performed with the use of a computer-aided process
simulator”
INTRODUCTION

Computer-Aided Design

“The capabilities provided by computers for rapid


calculations, large storage, and logical decisions plus the
available technical and mathematical software permit
design engineers to examine the effect that various
design variables will have on the process or plant design
and to be able to do this more rapidly than was
required in the past to complete a single design by hand
calculation”
INTRODUCTION

Cost Estimation

“As soon as the final process-design stage is completed,


it, becomes possible to make accurate cost
estimations because detailed equipment specifications
and definite plant-facility information are available.
Direct price quotations based on detailed specifications
can then be obtained from various manufacturers.”

“… estimates should be capable of providing a basis for


company management to decide if further capital should
be invested in the project.”
INTRODUCTION

“Fixed costs, direct production costs for raw materials,


labor, maintenance, power, and utilities must all be
included along with costs for plant and
administrative overhead, distribution of the final
products, and other miscellaneous items.”

“The final test as to the validity of any cost


estimation can come only when the completed plant
has been put into operation. However, if the design
engineer is well acquainted with the various
estimation methods and their accuracy…”
INTRODUCTION

Profitability Analysis of Investments

“A major function of the directors of a manufacturing


firm is to maximize the long-term profit to the
owners or the stockholders..”

“When a manufacturing enterprise invests money,


it expects to receive a return during the time the
money is being used. The amount of return demanded
usually depends on the degree of risk that is assumed.”
INTRODUCTION

“Expenses for various types of taxes and insurance


can materially affect the economic situation for any
industrial process. Because modern taxes may amount
to a major portion of a manufacturing firm’s net
earnings, it is essential that the chemical engineer
be conversant with the fundamentals of
taxation.”
INTRODUCTION

Projeto Ótimo
“… there are several alternative methods which can be
used for any given process or operation. For example,
formaldehyde can be produced by catalytic
dehydrogenation of methanol, by controlled oxidation of
natural gas, or by direct reaction between CO and H,
under special conditions of catalyst, temperature, and
pressure. Each of these processes contains many
possible alternatives involving variables such as gas-
mixture composition, temperature, pressure, and choice
of catalyst. It is the responsibility of the chemical
engineer, in this case, to choose the best.”
INTRODUCTION

Projeto Operacional “Ótimo”

“Many processes require definite conditions of


temperature, pressure, contact time, or other
variables if the best results are to be obtained. It is
often possible to make a partial separation of these
optimum conditions from direct economic
considerations. In cases of this type, the best design is
designated as the optimum operation design.”
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION

“… economic considerations ultimately determine


most quantitative decisions.”

“… the optimum operation design is usually merely a


tool or step in the development of an optimum
economic design”
INTRODUCTION

Projeto Econômico Ótimo

“If there are two or more methods for obtaining


exactly equivalent final results, the preferred method
would be the one involving the least total cost. This is
the basis of an optimum economic design. One typical
example of an optimum economic design is
determining the pipe diameter to use when pumping
a given amount of fluid from one point to another.”
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION

“When the engineer speaks of an optimum


economic design, it ordinarily means the
cheapest one selected from a number of
equivalent designs!!!”

Alternativas:
“…it may be desirable to choose a design
which gives the maximum profit per unit of
time or the minimum total cost per unit of
production.”
INTRODUCTION

5. Considerações Finais

“… It may be possible to determine an exact pipe


diameter for an optimum economic design, but this
does not mean that this exact size must be used in
the final design.”

“… It would be impractical to have a special pipe


fabricated with a specific diameter.”
INTRODUCTION

“In developing the plant layout, crucial control


valves must be placed where they are easily
accessible to the operators. Sufficient space
must be available for maintenance personnel to check,
take apart, and repair equipment.”

“cleaning operations are simplified if a scale-


forming fluid is passed through the inside of the
tubes rather than on the shell side of a tube-and-
shell heat exchanger”
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION

“The theoretical design of a distillation unit may


indicate that the feed should be introduced on one
particular tray in the tower. Instead of specifying a
tower with only one feed inlet on the calculated tray,
the practical engineer will include inlets on several
trays”

“… theoretical and economic principles must be


combined…”
