About Us
WE DELIVER INNOVATIVE, EFFICIENT & VALUE-DRIVEN SOLUTIONS FOR CUSTOMERS ALL OVER THE GLOBE.
CHEMICAL PROCESS ENGINEERS specializes in scaling up processes from laboratory / bench-scale / pilot-scale to industrial / commercial production facilities.
CHEMICAL PROCESS ENGINEERS is a Process Engineering Firm catering to the needs of Process and Chemical Industry in areas of design, development, detailed engineering and trouble-shooting.
Since its inception in 1988, CHEMICAL PROCESS ENGINEERS have been assisting the process industry in small, medium and large scale to build up in-house expertise in process,equipment and project development, modernisation, scaling-up, project execution and trouble shooting.
Short term assignments, successfully carried out to trouble-shoot specific areas in existing plants have resulted in long term association with most of our Clients.
Ability to scale-up processes from laboratory or pilot scale to industrial / commercial level has been our basic strength. To ensure smooth implementation of such scale-up, we provide back-up services including R & D management, planning & designing of experiments, literature/document
survey, cost-benefit analysis and detailed engineering. This is pictorially depicted in the enclosed block diagram.
The first principle which Chemical Process Engineers follows for any process design is to establish a hypothetical mass balance and energy balance for the process. Hypothetical computation results in estimation of theoretically possible maximum production and minimum energy requirement for the process.
Mass balance and Energy balance thus established sets the bench mark for comparing results actually arrived in actual process, be it a pilot plant or pilot plant design and pilot plant scale up or a production plant.
Figures on maximum production established in mass balance and energy balance diagram is based on stoichiometry-based calculation.
Process engineering and detailed engineering activities carried out by us are adequately backed up by drawings on AUTOCAD 2-D and 3-D which helps in ensuring that equipments are manufactured in compliance with process design, with equipment layout and piping being carried out according to our design and site conditions. A few sample drawings prepared by us are
enclosed herewith for your perusal.
The undersigned is a Chemical Engineering graduate from the Indian Institute of Technology,Kharagpur (1976, B.Tech.- First Class) and has been in the field of Design, Development and Project execution for over thirty five years.
Mechanical Engineering activities including AUTOCAD work are looked after by Mr.Balaji and Mr.Ganesh while Chemical Engineers Mrs.Surekha & B.V.Darshan provide the process design support.
Our Clients interface with us at all stages of project execution to ensure seamless implementation of our basic and detailed engineering
Though we restrict our role to that of a Consultant, we share the responsibility of achieving targeted results through careful planning, that enables the management to take effective decision and achieve desired objectives.

The Role of Mass Balance and Energy Balance in Process Design
For any process design, the first principle we follow is establishing a mass balance and energy balance. These calculations form the foundation for efficient and sustainable process engineering. Here’s how we utilize these balances:
- Mass Balance: This involves stoichiometry-based calculations to estimate the maximum theoretical production output. It helps identify raw material requirements, waste generation, and efficiency benchmarks.
- Energy Balance: By calculating the minimum energy requirements, we can optimize the energy usage for processes, ensuring cost-effectiveness and sustainability.
These balances serve as benchmarks, enabling us to compare theoretical estimates with actual results achieved in pilot plants, scale-up processes, or full-scale production facilities. This iterative approach ensures that processes are optimized for maximum production and energy efficiency.
Applications of Mass and Energy Balances in Engineering Projects
- Pilot Plant Design and Scale-Up: Using mass and energy balances, we develop accurate pilot plant designs, ensuring a smooth transition to industrial production.
- Process Optimization: Balances are used to identify bottlenecks and inefficiencies, helping us recommend process improvements.
- Detailed Engineering: Mass and energy balance data are incorporated into 2D and 3D AUTOCAD drawings for precise equipment and piping layouts.
- Cost Analysis: Energy balance calculations enable detailed cost-benefit analyses, helping clients make informed decisions about investments.
