    FUNDAMENTALS
    of Process & Mechanical
    Technology

    H.H. Sheik Sultan Tower (0) Floor | Corniche Street | Abu Dhabi – U.A.E | www.ictd.ae | ictd@ictd.ae
    Course Introduction
    This combined course focuses on the central areas of Process and Mechanical Engineering and
    guides the delegates in developing both fundamental and practical understandings of key issues.
    Process engineering is at the heart of much of the chemical, oil, gas, and petrochemical industries.

    Process and Mechanical engineers are interested in the safe containment, transportation and
    transformation of solids, liquids and gases. Of specific importance are separation processes including
    distillation, heat transfer, hydraulics and fluid flow, reaction engineering, process control and
    economics. It also focuses on sound mechanical engineering principles, together with other
    engineering techniques including inspection, monitoring and condition evaluation, that enable
    mechanical engineers to design and maintain the equipment required by process engineers.

    This course will feature:


     Practical introduction to the fundamentals of process engineering
     Practical introduction to the fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering, Equipment and
    Materials
     Key areas applicable to major process industries especially oil, gas & petrochemical
     Process and Mechanical Engineering influence on Safety and Risk, Failure Modes and
    Maintenance
     The links between the two engineering disciplines

    Course Objectives:
    By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
     Apply practical understanding of central issues in process & mechanical engineering in oil,
    gas, petrochemical, chemical, and allied facilities
     Understand fundamental principles used in processes & facilities & apply practical
    understanding of essential process units & classes of units involved in separations, heat
