includes all engineering aspects involved in the development of either a new, mattified or expanded industrial plant.
Plant Design
which is synonymous to FEASIBILITY STUDY, is a systematic inquiry to determine whether a specific business
undertaking could be implemented at a certain acceptable profit level
Project Study
5 MAJOR COMPONENTS OF PROJECT STUDY:
- Market study
- Technical Study
- Management Study
- Financial Feasibility study
- Social Desirability (SocioEconomic) study
to know minimal risk
to know higher rate of return
on investment
to know ample demand for the
product (major)
Market Study
identifies whether the product
could be produced at the
highest possible quality level
of min. cost
Technical Study
- composition relating to
physical/mechanical/chemical properties
product
-detailed flow
charts indicating materials
and energy processes,
duration of the process.

management study
determine the profitability
level of the project which is
generally defined as the
relationship of the net income
after taxes to the total
investment
financial feasibility study
based on the availability of
opportunity cost in a
particular period of time &
place.

employed and approx. annual
amount of taxes to be paid by
the project & workers to the
government.
SOCIO-ECO STUDY
measured by the eco. benefits
that will accrue to the people
living in the community & its
vicinities
