시스템엔지니어링 기반의 환경플랜트 FEED 프로세스 개발

Abstract

To protect earth from the various sources of impacts, worldwide regulations have been implemented for the last decades. Due to the regulations, so called the Global Environmental Market is anticipated to grow from $923.6 billion dollars in 2013 to $1,870 billion dollars in 2020. Even if the market share of Korea has been increased significantly, the global market is mostly taken by a few advanced countries, such as US and Western Europe. The key barrier to move into the market is due to lack of technology, called FEED (Front End Engineering Design; composed of Conceptual Design (CD) and Basic Design (BD)) for environmental plants. Up to present, FEED level of Korean industry is very primitive without track record as most of the Korean industry has focused on detailed engineering and construction (EPC). Due to the various reasons and complexity of environmental pollution, FEED technology for environmental plants is related with multidisciplinary domain knowledge; science (physics, chemistry, biology, etc.) and engineering (mechanical, chemical, civil, electric, etc.). Thus, to level up the FEED capability, the core technology as well as development process technology are required. In this thesis, we approach FEED problem by systems engineering (SE), a powerful approach to deal with complex and multidisciplinary domain problem, typically applied for defense and aircraft industry in US. In this thesis, we first analyze FEED process taken by the advanced countries and compare with the generic international SE process formalized as ISO 15288. Then, a tailored process for FEED process for environmental plant has been derived. The developed FEED process was verified by the domain experts in the industry by questionnaires. The results indicated that the developed SE-based FEED process is very powerful process to enhance the FEED capability for Korean Industry. The developed in this thesis can be applied to other plant engineering domain as a means for enhancing FEED capability. Keywords: Environmental Plants.
