Design & Process Engineering

Hey folks, Hope so you guys are safe. Today i am going to share you some information about design industries. As a chemical engineer we play a vital role in these industries. The chemical industries in the world has been built with the help of Design and Process engineers. This is one of the best career option after your graduation, but before getting into these industries, you need to excel in some of the simulation software. Most of the colleges won't help you to gain knowledge with these tools. Hence you need to train up yourselves by getting these simulation software certifications and definitely should have fundamental knowledge of Chemical engineering subjects. The common tools used by industries are ASPEN HYSYS, ASPEN PLUS, HONEYWELL SIMULATIONS. These are some of the tools used by design engineers and also by process engineers. These software tools are trained to the chemical engineers by various academy instructors. Some of the training center which offer these courses are:

1. Petrokens Engineering Services
2. Chemsys Process Engineering Pvt. ltd
3. Dimensional academy
4. EDPTI
5. Smart Brains Engineers&Technologist Pvt. ltd

These are some of the best institutes which provide classroom training sessions for these course.

There are also some online training sessions provided by some organizations, they are:

1. AIChE Academy 
2. Udemy

First of all, we should know the difference between Design engineers and Process engineers. My friends work in both the field, i came to know the difference of that from them. I am sharing their views on this.

• Design engineers: They play the role before the construction stage of plant and also helps in developing the existing plan of the project in the Chemical industries. They work in an environment as people work in IT sectors with systems and tools. They mainly design the equipment that is used in various industries.
• Process engineers: They play the role in manufacturing field of Chemical industries and turns raw material to a product in a suitable method and also helps in optimization of process. These people  mostly work and gain knowledge by working in industrial sectors that involves in Production and Manufacturing process.   

List of Design & Process engineering industries that have opportunities for chemical engineers:

1. Thermax
2. KBR
3. Larsen and Turbo                                                                                                 
   
4. Technip
5. Schlumberger
6. Exxon Mobil
7. Saipem
8. Dow
9. Siemens
10. Shell
11. AkzoNobel
12. Wood
13. Emerson
14. ENOIA
15. Saint Gobain

These are top industries which offer job opportunities for chemical engineers as Design & Process Engineers. I hope this information was useful for you guys. In my next post, i will come up with more information.
