Training Course Overview
This Chemical Engineering for Non-Chemical Engineers training course is designed for professionals and practitioners who need a solid understanding of chemical engineering concepts, as well as related disciplines such as mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation engineering. This interdisciplinary knowledge is crucial, as process engineering plays a central role in the chemical, oil, gas, and petrochemical industries.
Process Engineers focus on the movement and transformation of solids, liquids, and gases. In the oil and gas sector, particular emphasis is placed on separation techniques like distillation, as well as on heat transfer, fluid dynamics, reaction engineering, process control, and economic considerations. This course highlights the core aspects of process engineering and helps participants build both foundational knowledge and practical insight into critical topics.
This training course will feature:
- A practical introduction to the fundamentals of process engineering
- Key areas applicable to major process industries especially oil, gas & petrochemical
- Process Engineering influence on Safety and Risk
- Optimisation of process design and control
- Costs and project costing
Training Course Objectives
By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:
- Understand fundamental principles used in processes and facilities
- Apply practical understanding of hydraulics and fluid flow
- Apply learning from historical safety incidents
- Perform relevant calculations & analyses to assist in operation, sizing & troubleshooting
- Develop perspective & focus from a company viewpoint of interaction of different engineering disciplines
Designed for
This training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit professionals without a chemical engineering background who work in process-related industries. It is suitable for:
- Mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation staff
- Operations and maintenance personnel
- Safety and reliability engineers
- Project and cost engineers
- Non-technical staff supporting engineering teams
- Supervisors and technical managers
Participants will gain essential knowledge to support process operations and cross-functional collaboration.
Learning Methods
This training course will utilise a variety of proven adult learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension and retention of the information presented. This includes formal lectures and discussions, active participation through the use of problem-solving exercises, videos, group discussions, analysis of real-life case studies and industry best practices. Case studies and examples will cover a range of levels, making the course also suitable non-technical staff.
