This comprehensive 1-week seminar on Applied Chemical Engineering provides a deep dive into the scientific principles and practical applications of fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, heat transfer, separation processes, and reaction engineering. Students will gain a thorough understanding of the key operations and technologies used in the heavy chemical industry, including refineries, plastics production, and petrochemicals.

The course is ideally suited for professionals working in the chemical, petrochemical, or process engineering fields who are looking to expand their technical knowledge and stay up-to-date with the latest advancements. Through a combination of theoretical instruction and hands-on simulations, participants will learn to analyze and optimize a wide range of chemical processes, from heat exchanger design to distillation and adsorption.

Key features of the course include in-depth coverage of single and multi-component fluid flows, phase diagrams, heat transfer modes, reactor design, and reaction kinetics. Attendees will also gain experience with industry-leading process simulation software, allowing them to apply the concepts learned in a practical, real-world context.

Awarded 20 CPD hours, this skills-based course is delivered online, providing maximum flexibility for busy professionals to study at their own pace and fit the learning around their work and personal commitments.
