| Abstract: | The overall performance of a chemical plant goes beyond engineering design and optimization. Operational factors such as teamwork, communication, human oversight, and process troubleshooting are crucial in determining the plant's safety and profitability. This paper proposes the integration of simulation-based teaching into the chemical engineering curriculum, providing students with the opportunity to develop process operation and troubleshooting skills along with understanding the basic concepts involved in chemical plant operations. |
