Creative Aspects of Process DesignIn many particular company, we might try to generate new ideal
• To produce a purchased raw material• To convert a waste by-product to a valuable product• To create a new material• To find a new way of producing an existing product• To exploit a new technology

A Hierarchical Approach to Conceptual Design
• The engineering method indicates that we should solve design problems by first developing very simple solutions and then adding successive layers of details

A Hierarchical Approach to Conceptual Design
Example: Hydrodealkylation of Toluene (HDA process)
Toluene + H2 Benzene + CH4
2Benzene Diphenyl + H2

Example: Hydrodealkylation of Toluene (HDA process) – Vapor Recovery System
As a vapor recovery system we could use one of these:
• Condensation (high pressure, or low temperature, or both)• Absorption• Adsorption• A membrane process
