Plant design
(Basic ideas)
- Tender
- Feasibility survey
- Bid
- Economic and Technical evaluation
- Engineering: Conceptual design, basic design, and detail design & engineering
(basic design, detail design, plant layout, recommendations/preferences)
- Simple drawings
- Ideas Conceptual design < Tender, clients  Also depends on projects, clients, country codes
- Conceptual < Basic design > Detail design  Projects in Mexico and CFP Bangladesh
- Simulation
- P&ID, PFD (sample), 2D, 3D, costing, procurement plans
- Equipment design Detail engineering
- Interdisciplinary (Civil, mech, E&I)
- Process safety, environmental requirements

- Plant design book, standards, design engineering practices (DEP)

- How to serve Bangladesh (complete engineering companies, design and operation of our own plant at least,
thinking, planning, education)

- Preparation ( visit industries, skills, simulation, control, ME, programming, EEE knowledge, standards, forums,
design standards, AIChE/CEP, projects)
Tender document
- It’s called the bible for a project
- Tenders for Bangladeshi projects needs to be improved https://tinyurl.com/yxt9fazv
