4. Synopsis of the Course
• This course offers a background understanding to design a chemical product
using a computer-aided approach.
• This course introduces step by step in designing chemical products from
market survey, problem formulation, establish product needs, generate ideas to
produce the targeted product, select among ideas and manufacture of product.
• The lecture will apply the step by step of the product design using applicable
case studies for design of a product as well as enhance the understanding of
design process among students.
• The product is design to meet the product specifications, environmental issues
and also taking into consideration of sustainable issues.

5. Course Outcomes

7. Teaching Methodology
No. Type Implementation
1. Active Learning Conducted through in-class activities
2. Project-based
Learning
A project is given to students that require students to
design a chemical product. Student need to identify
product needs, target properties, property models, and
perform computer aided tools using ICAS software to
find the best ingredients to produce the desired
product. The ingredients will be screened and selected
through an optimization and economic analysis.
Students are also required to produce a hardcopy
report and present the project.
