The focus is not only on the process itself\u2014such as filtration, evaporation or a chemical reaction\u2014but also on its practical implementation in a functioning technical infrastructure: <strong>plant planning<\/strong>, construction and control engineering must mesh seamlessly. The goal: safe, efficient and legally compliant operation.  <\/p><p>While process engineering focuses on the transformation of substances, plant engineering refers to the \u201chow\u201d of implementation\u2014i.e., piping, pumps, valves, control systems and the structural infrastructure.
