Hey guys, People often need to pay more attention to the importance of process engineering, including process engineers themselves.  While the process team may not be as numerous as other disciplines, their importance in shaping the project's outcome cannot be underestimated. After working on so many projects and with so many process engineers, I have discovered some unique limitations and characteristics that need to be added in those engineers. Those characteristics' absence led to several complications and problems in the project.  One misconception is that whatever process does remains to the process team; for example if the process team consumes more resources or proposes a sub-optimal design, then the process team is accountable as such, and another misconception is that main responsibility of the process group is to do simulation and come up with PFD, heat and mass balance as well as P&ID with philosophies but the real thing is that whatever scheme process proposes is not mentioned by anyone, that is why nobody cross-questions what is the rationale behind using various options or doing the selection among the possibilities. Purely due to these reasons, a designed process, PFD, and P&ID get backlash at later stages of the project, which also has consequences for the downstream disciplines. In this video, I've highlighted the importance of critical thinking in process engineering. As a process engineer, you should be able to evaluate various options critically and not just accept something at its surface, even if it's from the client. Only a robust scheme, which the process team can defend, will truly propel the project forward. So, best of luck and happy learning. Even though the topic is vast, I've structured it into three comprehensive videos. These videos will provide a good start for new process engineers and offer fundamental guidelines for seasoned professionals. After seeing the three videos, I am confident that all of the audience would get a feel of how the process team should operate in a fast-track project environment. https://lnkd.in/dBbRcyqg
