1. Course Title : Industrial Processes
Course code: NME 516
Course Objective: To familiarize the students with the various industrial plant processes
involved in the Mechanical Engineering field.
Course Desciption
The study of the unit operations, unit processes and equipment of industrial processing
plants, focusing on local industries that may be visited during field trips. The course also
involves the study and analysis of flow sheets, equipment and operating data from simple
cone-type rice mills, coconut oil mills, sugar centrals, plywood factories, cement plants,
etc. Also it deals with various trips to local and industrial manufacturing plants and reports
by students regarding the plants visited and problems in industrial equipment and
processes. This is supplemented with lectures and discussions based on topics on the
different phases and application of Mechanical Engineering practices.
