    This document outlines a final year design project for chemical engineering students to design a tomato powder production plant. It provides guidelines for the project scope which involves conducting a pre-feasibility study, choosing a process route and plant location, and designing the full production process. The project is to be completed over two semesters, with chapters addressing various aspects of the process design and economic evaluation. Students will work in groups and are responsible for submitting technical reports at each stage, presenting their work, and defending their final project design.

    UNIVERSITY OF LAGOS

    Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering


    Final Year Design Project (Chemical Engineering Process Design I & II)
    2018/2019 SESSION
    Dr. Daniel Ayo and Dr. Akinjide Akinola
    THE DE SIGN OF TOMATO POWDER PRODUCTION PLANT

    Tomatoes are grown in large and commercial scales in Nigeria, especially in the
    Northern part of the country. It is consumed equally across the length and breadth of
    the entire country in form of fresh tomatoes, tomato pastes, tomato puree and
    tomato powder. Tomato production is seasonal and highly perishable. This has
    posed a bit challenge to both consumers and farmers.

    This project requires that the student group chooses a process route for a plant for
    the production of Tomato powder. Each group is free to choose the source of its
    tomatoes, market outlet, and plant location. The group is required to carry out a pre-
    feasibility study to serve as an indicator of technical and economic viability of the
    process. Thereafter, the group is required to design a process plant to produce
    specified quantities of tomato powder per annum. The student is expected to justify
    the choice of raw material source, market outlet, plant location, process route and
    mode of operation (batch, or continuous). The Design Report is expected to address
    the following;

    S/No Chapter
    FIRST SEMESTER
    1 Pre-Feasibility Study
    2 Environmental Impact Assessment
    3 Raw Materials and Product Specification
    4 Process Route and Equipment Identification
    5 Material Balance
    6 Energy Balance
    7 Process Flow Diagram
    8 Basic P&ID (whole plant)
    SECOND SEMESTER
    9 Equipment Selection and Chemical Engineering Design of a Selected Process Unit
    (Main Drier)
    10 Detailed P&ID around the Selected Process Unit
    11 Mechanical Design of the Selected Process Unit
    12 Statements of Material Handling
    13 HAZOP Studies
    14 Site Selection, Site Layout and Plant Layout
    15 Economic Evaluation Projected Over a Fifteen-Year Period
    Each group is required to submit a technical report and an administrative report on
    completion of each Chapter. The Administrative report should reflect details of
    discussions at meetings, attendance, and contribution by each member. All students
    are required to sit for a mini test at the end of each Chapter to confirm the
    contributions from each member.

    Two groups shall be chosen each week to lead discussions on each of the Chapters.
    On completion of the project, the remaining weeks of the second Semester shall be
    spent carrying out “dry-run” of project presentation, in preparation for Final Project
    defence.

    The project Defence Panel will be selected from Chemical Engineers from industry,
    academia and government.
