# Process design ## MicroSim spec - **Recommended sim type:** [[Algorithm|algorithm]]-steps - **Microsimmability score:** 75/100 - **Layout:** drawing region (canvas) on top; control region (sliders/buttons) below. ### Parameters (tunable controls) - `Number of unit steps - 1 to 8` - `Target conversion / recovery - 0 to 1` - `Recycle on/off` ### What animates A flowsheet is assembled step-by-step on the canvas and key stream metrics update as units are added and a recycle is toggled, showing the design taking shape. ### Learning objective See how sequencing unit operations and a recycle shapes overall process performance. ## Links (Wikipedia order)  `.design` · `Active_design` · `Activity-centered_design` · `Adaptive_web_design` · `Advertising` · `Affective_design` ·

develops and specifies the [[Sequence|sequence]] of unit operations, streams, and conditions that turn feedstocks into products. ## Build checklist - [ ] Claim it: set `status: in-progress` + `lease` + `leased_at` - [ ] Write the child page explaining the concept (tie it back to process engineering) - [ ] Finalize parameter ranges and defaults - [ ] Implement the p5.js sketch (drawing + control regions) - [ ] Add caption + the learning objective on the page - [ ] Set `status: done` ## p5.js sketch ```javascript // MicroSim: Process design let controls = {}; function setup() { // createCanvas(...); create sliders for the parameters above. } function draw() { // background(...); read controls; render algorithm-steps; respond live. } ``` --- Back to Process Engineering ·
