Interesting. Regarding different types of Pipes criss-cross the plant I would like to add the sheer number of drain lines required. open drain, closed drain, hydrocarbon drain, amine drain etc. etc.
Nice input! I also didn’t know that you have separate systems for storm water sewers and for internal conservation sewers (for draining the nasty stuff). Obviously! But why would anyone know when they start!
I always had this though "management designs and plans for the engineer, engineer sorts out the management's plans, engineer gets all the blame for what they did and management all the praise" I want to design my own process but I am just an engineer (aka I have no money) so I can't do anything yet.
The politics is an excellent point! And certainly, even something as silly as valve sizing in the absence of application feels like you’re plugging numbers into equations.
So it's not too common, but one of my colleagues has a mechanical background but currently works as a process specialist. I think if you work with a specific technology enough there is no reason why you can't. But it may be difficult to be hired as a graduate. Definitely not impossible though.
As a Chem E with 35 years experience, your comments are spot on.
That is high praise, thank you.
Hi Mr P, you're well spot on mate. Even as managers we struggle to answer very simple questions and always rely on on the long serving operators.
Thank you, Pat. I really needed to hear that as a new engineer.
Awesome! Good luck! Remember, there’s no rush and never pretend to know something you don’t. Go kick arse!
"Enjoy your mass and energy while they still balance," love it 🤣.
The struggle is real…
Very interesting to hear about your experiences Pat, and an excellent video once again! 👍 👍

Great summed up info

Jessie Pinkman finally made a yt acc
Engineering, bitch...
@@ProcesswithPat OMG😂😂😂😭😭😭😭😭😭
Hey Pat do you have any suggestions on a book that you could recommend for piping systems and pumps
Application and politics. Exergy analysis has become popular recently, for example, and never really understood it until I had a practical context.
The politics is an excellent point! And certainly, even something as silly as valve sizing in the absence of application feels like you’re plugging numbers into equations.
So spot on 😂, We have all been there!
Thank you so much for your videos. Great insight for me ^_^
I agree with all of your points!
Interesting. Thank you!
Thank for your content!
I got you!
hi pat.
can a mechanical engineering graduate do ms in process engineering?
will he be able to work as a process engineer?

Thanks
thats fucking perfect.HAHAHAHA
thank you men
