Rationale:
The objective of this subject is to teach the students about requirement of different utilities for the process plant and effective utilization. Main utilities required for process plants are water, steam, air and refrigerants. Steam and non-steam heating media is used for conversion of raw material to products in reactors and to elevate the temperature in the chemical processes. Similarly, refrigeration is important to maintain the temperature in the process plant. Compressed air and process air is used in processes and instrument air is used in pneumatic devices and controls.
Learning Outcomes:
After studying this course, the students will be able to:
- Acquire the knowledge for selection of different utilities.
- Understand basic calculations involved in steam generation, psychometric operation and refrigeration.
- Describe the different equipment used to run the process plant with different utilities.
- State the principles involved during water treatment
- Know different fuels used in boilers

Instructional Strategy:
- Teacher should focus on conceptual clarity.
- An industrial visit can be organized in relevant industries.
- Audio-visuals aids should be used to teach.
Means of Assessment:
- Assignments and quiz/class tests
- Mid-term and end-term written tests
List of Experiments:
- To determine the alkalinity of water
- To determine the hardness of water
- To determine the variation in PH with ion exchange bed
- Determination of humidity and use of humidity chart
- Boiler simulator
- Determination of outgoing temperature of water from any cooling tower
- Observing starting procedure of thermopack or boiler
- Draw & prepare the report of steam traps
- Observation of use of instrument air in pneumatic control valve
