The national standard for process technology equipment
Process Technology Equipment is part of the NAPTA Series for Process Technology. Developed in partnership with Industry and Education, this unprecedented collection supports a consistent curriculum and exit competencies for process technology graduates. Process Technology Equipment provides a common national standard for the process technology equipment course of a process technology degree program. It focuses on the tools and equipment of the process industries and doubles as a valuable reference guide throughout a process technology career. The 2nd edition has been thoroughly updated and revised to align with the new NAPTA curriculum.

The North American Process Technology Alliance (NAPTA) is an organization of process technology (PTEC) education providers and industry, and community stakeholders cooperatively working toward a common goal.

The NAPTA is the standard-bearer of the PTEC curriculum. The NAPTA audits PTEC degree programs in North America and endorses those that meet its criteria. Eligible colleges have received the NAPTA endorsement.
