As one often neglected field of plant engineering we feel very strong about including the design of logistics infrastructure into our plant design curriculum. Logistical aspects do not only relate to major plant safety issues, but also often affect sizable portions of operating costs in a typical chemical plant, also considering that storage, loading and re-loading, and general materials handling make up a significant part of investment cost. Plant logistics as we see it, however goes far beyond plant design. It also includes important aspects of the final plant operations. Shipment sizing and production scheduling are of major concern for operational managers and dispatchers. With this, training in the field of logistics leads us straight to exposing the trainee to operational issues that will finally have valuable repercussions that feed back to design and layout of the entire plant.
