IndustryControl Narratives

It is important to control the liquid level inside the column to ensure that adequate mass transfer takes place between the vapor and liquid phases, and to prevent flooding. This is accomplished by using a feedback control system in loop 204 that regulates the flow of rich amine leaving the bottom of the absorber (stream 12). Excessively high and low liquid levels pose an operational risk, and as such are insured by interlock action. I-3 trips the motor on pumps P-201 at the bottom of the absorber if the liquid level is excessively low, which terminates the outflow of liquid. Conversely, the amine inflow (stream 10) is terminated by I-4 using a shutoff valve if the liquid level becomes very high.

ACT AS ONE TEAM

• Presence whole team at the meetings

• Design leaders involvement

• Guide the development

• Focus on Students Strenghts

• Found project execution bottlenecks

• Motivates & Free students’ Energy!

• Get Best from students

PROVIDE TRAINING

Not all students share the same field experience

Training is typically on:Basic Controls & InterlocksLink between HAZOP, P&ID & InterlocksRead/draw a P&IDProject ManagementSimulation Skills (Aspen Hysys®…)

Hands-on

Project Accelerator

Difficult to integrate more training session during Design Course

What are the benefits for the industrial Design Leaders?

Benefits for students: Momentum for their career in a rewarding project


WINS FOR DESIGN LEADERS

• Confront our own limitations

• Develop Management Skills

• Learn new technologies

• Essential relationship industry-university

• Develop high potential individuals


LOOKING FORWARD…

• Develop specialized workshops

– Practical Topics

Ex: How to create/read P&ID

How to do an Hazop?

– Industrial Design Leaders – Subject Matter Experts

– Hands-on training

– Offered through out bachelor program

• Build strong community around universities
