Workshops
Half Day Hands-on Workshop on "Fluid flow, pressure drop, and hydraulic analysis"
Speaker:
Mr. Wiroon Tanhapanichakoon
Professional Licensed Chemical Engineer in Thailand
12 August 2022 | Friday | 900 – 1300
Impiana Hotel, KLCC, Kuala Lumpur
SYNOPSIS
Chemical and mechanical engineers often have to deal with fluid flow and hydraulic analysis in their projects and technical works. Unfortunately, most people do it incorrectly or without sufficient knowledge, resulting in undersizing and/or oversizing of lines and components in the hydraulic systems, which subsequently lead to problems in operations. The problem with existing training courses is that they focus only on line pressure drop, but fails to address the effects of many important components such as fittings, control valves, pumps, compressors, heat transfer equipment, and instruments. This intensive course will show real examples of hydraulic analysis calculations, thus making it very practical and useful for practicing design engineers.
Target Group: Engineers e.g. chemical engineers and mechanical engineers, process design engineers, process engineers, engineering company engineers, any technical people dealing with fluid flow and hydraulic analysis.

Economics of Industrial Decarbonization
Speaker:
Prof. Santanu Bandyopadhyay
Department of Energy Science and Engineering,
Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, India
12 August 2022 | Friday | 1300 – 1730
Impiana Hotel, KLCC, Kuala Lumpur
SYNOPSIS
One of the essential prerequisites for sustainable development and reducing the effects of climate change and global warming is decarbonizing the energy sector. The word “decarbonization” literally means the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. Decarbonization is converting to an economic system to reduce and compensate for carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions and other greenhouse gases. The long-term goal is to create a CO₂-free global economy. The industrial sector, in general, contributes significantly to the emission of atmospheric greenhouse gases. Industrial decarbonization represents the phasing out of carbon dioxide emissions from all aspects of industry without compromising competitiveness and prosperity. Economics plays a vital role in determining different pathways of industrial decarbonization. This workshop will discuss the economic merits of different industrial decarbonization measures. In this workshop, different economic merits for project appraisal, determination of cost of energy, cost of abated carbon, conservation supply curves, and marginal carbon abatement curve will be discussed. Fundamental theories will be discussed, and related problems will be solved in tutorial mode.
Objectives
– Understanding the importance of industrial decarbonization
– Understanding different economic merits for economic project appraisal
– Understanding quantities calculations of the cost of energy, cost of conserved energy, and cost of abated carbon
– Understanding visual representations of economic merits such as conservation supply and marginal carbon abatement curves.
– Hands-on calculations of different examples
