Problem Solving in the process industry is often characterized by ·either inference based on cause and effect relationships or highly involved theoretical approaches. Neither of these approaches is satisfactory in a modern manufacturing environment. The cause/effect inference approach while being expedient often results in solutions that do not eliminate the problem, but in fact make the problem worse. The more sophisticated highly theoretical approach is rarely expedient enough to satisfy time constraints in a production facility. Thus one of the most frequent industry requests to the academic world is "give us people that can solve problems".

This program presents an approach that emphasizes the classical problem solving approach (defining the sequence of events) with the addition of the steps of formulating a theoretically correct working hypothesis, providing a means to test the hypothesis, and providing a foolproof means to eliminate the problem. The initial part of the seminar focuses on defining the problem that must be solved and obtaining the location, time and quantity based specifications of the problem. The initial part of the seminar is suitable for all engineering disciplines as well as non-engineers.

The second part of the seminar deals with the utilization of chemical engineering fundamentals to develop a technically correct working hypothesis that is the key to successful problem solving. The primary emphasis is on pragmatic calculation techniques that are theoretically correct. These techniques have been developed by the Seminar Instructor in 40+ years of industrial experience. Using these techniques, theoretically correct working hypotheses can be developed in an expedient fashion.

The training includes both sample problems as well as problem working sessions to allow the participants to develop confidence with the approach.

The attendees are encouraged to bring real problems that they are working to use in discussions on the last day of the seminar. These problems should be of a nonconfidential nature that can be discussed without violation of any confidentiality restrictions.

Objective
