Quality Management for Chemical and Petrochemical Processing Plants

Chemical and petrochemical plants across Africa manage tight product specifications, continuous processes and demanding customers who reject off specification batches. This course builds quality skills tailored to process manufacturing, covering batch and continuous control, sampling, blending, and managing variation in flowing product streams. Participants learn to hold consistent product quality in a process environment rather than a discrete parts one.
