Brief Course Description and Course Contents


Chemical Process Simulation is one of the basic lab courses in the undergraduate curriculum
of chemical engineering / petrochemical engineering/ chemical technology / industrial
biotechnology disciplines. The aim of this workshop is to work out a methodology to teach
this course effectively at the undergraduate level. Exposure to this tool will help researchers
also. It will also help improve the employment in industry, as careful use of this tool can
increase the productivity in industry.

All of the above will be achieved through DWSIM, a free and open source chemical process
simulation software. DWSIM is an excellent alternative to Aspen Plus. DWSIM can be
used free of cost by the industry also.

At the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:


● create a material stream
● simulate pressure changers
● simulate heater/cooler/heat exchangers
● create binary phase envelope
● simulate reactors
● perform sensitivity analysis and adjust
● simulate separation columns
● simulate process flowsheets using DWSIM

In addition, the participants will be exposed to advanced topics, such as the custom model
creation, and addition of new molecules to the property estimation database.

The workshop will be conducted using a mix of pre-recorded spoken tutorial videos with
side by side learning and live lectures. A number of practice problems will also be provided
after every topic followed by discussions on them to get a good understanding of each topic.
All participants will get the DWSIM software, Spoken Tutorials on DWSIM, copies of our
slides, video recording of all lectures, several flowsheets solved using DWSIM, and several
custom models. Using these all who are interested in conducting DWSIM workshops by
themselves can do so. They will also get exposed to the collaborative content creation
activity of the FOSSEE Project.
