Contents:
What some chemical engineers do for a living -- Introduction to engineering calculations processes and process variables -- Fundamentals of material balances -- Single-phase systems -- Multiphase systems -- Energy and energy balances -- Balances on nonreactive processes -- Computer-aided balance calculations -- Balances on transient processes -- Production of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride -- Steam reforming of natural gas and subsequent synthesis of methanol -- Scrubbing of sulfur dioxide from power plant stack gases -- Appendix A. Computational techniques -- Appendix B. Physical property tables.
Review: "Material that's presented in a very clear and accessible way ... frequent use of examples ... case studies based on commercial processes ... a CD-ROM with instructional tutorials, a powerful equation solver, and a visual encyclopedia of chemical process equipment ... These are just a few of the features of this text that help provide a realistic, informative introduction to chemical processes."--BOOK JACKET.
