Conceptual and Preliminary Process Design Services
The first step in any facility’s process design is identifying the process goal and the technical options available to achieve it. PROCESS provides our clients with extensive experience and expert chemical engineers who can determine existing challenges and provide viable solutions for any process expansion. We develop conceptual designs that include flow diagrams, mass and energy balances, equipment needed, rough cost estimates, and more. Our process design services use front-end loading systems that are designed to significantly improve process operations. Learn more about our conceptual and preliminary process designs and projects below.
