723-01 Process Product Movement and Shipment
Learning objectives
- Identify common types and design considerations of product storage systems used in industrial facilities
- Recognize methods used to transport industrial products
- Describe how product transfer operations are coordinated to reduce risk
- Identify key characteristics and safety considerations of marine transport operations
Course overview
Initial plant facility design and construction must consider product movement and storage dynamics. The system must be kept moving and balanced, accounting for maximum product loading, unloading, and storage needs. Whenever a piece of equipment or unit in the system stops, the process is interrupted, and overall operating efficiency drops. So, starting and stopping equipment occurs only when necessary for maintenance and repair.
The Process Product Movement and Shipment training course describes efficiency considerations in facility design and product storage and transportation types. It also explains precautions taken when handling product. This online training course is part of the Process Product Movement and Storage training series.
