Chemical Engineering SIXTH

8. RATIONALE

Development of a plant for any chemical product is a big job. It requires preparing a

comprehensive report of chemical process and unit operations specific to that

product. It is necessary to study the properties of raw materials and product,

economic factors, safety features and pollution issues. Calculation of material and

energy consumption is very important for designing the plant. Specifications for

major equipments, plant layout and location are to be dealt with great care. In view

of all these a chemical engineering student must be able to prepare a project report

for a particular chemical product including all above aspects to become an

entrepreneur. A chemical product can be selected from various chemical sectors

like Petrochemicals, Fertilizers, Pharmaceuticals, Pesticides, Natural products,

Polymers, Acid and Alkalis, Speciality chemicals, Dyes and pigments etc.

9. COMPETENCY

The course content should be taught and implemented with the aim to developdifferent types of skills so that students are able to acquire following competency:

To prepare a project report for a particular chemical product includingimportant feature

10. COURSE OUTCOMES

Note: This specification table shall be treated as a general guideline for students andteachers. The actual distribution of marks in the question paper may vary slightly fromabove table.

7. SUGGESTED LIST OF EXERCISES/PRACTICAL

The practical/exercises should be properly designed and implemented with an attempt todevelop different types of cognitive and practical skills (Outcomes in cognitive,psychomotor and affective domain) so that students are able to acquire thecompetencies.Following is the list of practical exercises for guidance.

Note: Here only outcomes in psychomotor domain are listed as practical/exercises.However, if these practical/exercises are completed appropriately, they would also leadto development of Programme Outcomes/Course Outcomes in affective domain as givenin a common list at the beginning of curriculum document for this programme. Facultyshould refer to that common list and should ensure that students also acquire thoseProgramme Outcomes/Course Outcomes related to affective domain
