Course Content
A team of 8-10 students have the task to plan a production plant on the basis of a general task. This includes process development and the selection of a production process based on evaluations of the different alternatives, mass- and energy balances, process- and P&ID flowcharts, dimensioning of the main equipment, layout planning and calculations of profitability. The team members have to organize their work on their own. The grouping is
drawn by the responsible person before.
The group reports on their results and the planned future work biweekly. The Group Project ends with final report and presentation. Typically, the group members are allowed to visit an industrial company afterwards in the form of an excursion.
