Design and integration of chemical process is the step required to
convert laboratory process into industrial scale. It calculates the
requirement of mass of raw materials and products, energy,
fabrication materials and auxiliaries such as pumps, motors,
electricity, heaters, boilers etc. On the other hand, in laboratory
environment, a chemical reaction is developed based only on
reaction success in glass beakers and final yield without much
consideration to its cost of production. Therefore, when that
reaction is transferred to large industrial scale for bulk
production, several other aspects are also considered. Among these
aspects or parameters, the first and the most important parameter
is mass balance and process type i.e. batch or continuous
production. It tells us about the requirement of each raw material
required for the process, its cost, and supply source. Then, the
total energy requirement is calculated, it includes determination
of energy released or absorbed during each step of the reaction,
and how it can be provided. Sometimes, energy from an exothermic
reaction step is extracted by heat exchangers and used in another
energy deficient reaction step. Once mass and energy requirements
are calculated, then process design considerations are determined.
It includes resident time of reactants and products in each step,
its physical condition, and type of material required for
fabrication of reaction vessels and pipes. This entire process is
iterative in nature therefore, performed several times to obtain
the most optimized process design parameters. Furthermore, each of
the above-mentioned steps are specialization in itself and requires
utmost attention to details. Therefore, in this book several
researches related to different approaches of design and
integration of chemical process are included.
