Program Description

Course Overview The course entitled “Design of Specific Utility Systems” covers various types of utilities employed in the process industry, their purposes, and the description of batch and continuous-type plants. This particular course covers sources for effluents, their composition, effluent analysis, usages of treated effluents, primary, secondary, and tertiary wastewater treatment, location, layout, and plot area required for effluent treatment plants, procurement strategy, materials of construction, and control of the effluent treatment plant. Further, codes referred to the design of safety relief systems, types of pressure relief valves, flares, and their types, components of the flare system, and its control are covered. Procurement strategy for the flare package, inputs required for the design of flare systems, and deliverables for the design of flare systems are included. Also covered the miscellaneous utility systems like co-generation plants and their design. Course Objectives To identify the important equipment involved in a given utility To understand the batch and continuous type plants To know the design of Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP), Safety Relief & Flare, and other systems To select the material of construction of the components of the utility systems To create the utility layout, and establish the procurement strategy To design the given utility of Chemical Process Industries to comply with codes and standards

Lead Faculty

Dr. Nakka Muralidhara Rao Subject Matter Expert - Thermal & Fluid Engineering, L&T EduTech As an alumnus of IIT Kharagpur, Dr. Rao brings nearly three decades of experience in research, development, and industry. He specializes in computational fluid dynamics, heat transfer, two-phase flow, microfluidics, nanofluids, low-grade energy, solar energy, biodiesel, chaotic analysis, and piping analysis. While serving as the Head of Rolta Academy, he played a pivotal role in establishing it as a world-class institution and led the Project Control, Proposal & Estimation department. Dr. Rao also spearheaded the design and analysis of the Flame Deflector Plate for the dissipation of flume gases in a semi-cryo engine test facility, collaborating with ISRO for the Test Facility Centre in Mahendragiri, Tamil Nadu, while utilizing CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis techniques. A seasoned academic and industry professional, Dr. Rao excels in designing and delivering cutting-edge educational programs and training solutions in Mechanical Engineering, while mentoring the next generation of engineers. Dr. L.S Bhadrinarayanan Subject Matter Expert- Chemical Engineering, L&T EduTech Dr. Bhadri earned his B.Tech in Chemical Engineering from Anna University, followed by an MSc in Physics specializing in Nuclear Energy Engineering from KTH Royal Institute of Technology and PSI, Switzerland. He obtained his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Anna University, Chennai. His professional journey includes roles as a Research Assistant at Nuclear Power Safety, KTH, and as a Research Associate Fellow in the Fast Reactor Design Group at Indira Gandhi Center for Atomic Research (IGCAR). Dr. Bhadri also holds a European Master of Science in Nuclear Engineering from the European Nuclear Education Network, Belgium. With expertise spanning chemical and process engineering, nuclear engineering, experimental design and prototypes, and software applications, Bhadri has over a decade of research and academic experience. His work encompasses experimental physics, chemical reactor engineering, nuclear power safety, recycling of industrial wastes, and sustainability. Notably, his research in ion exchange has led to an Indian patent and a journal publication.
