This fully updated Third Edition presents entirely new problems at the end of every chapter. It also adds extensive coverage of batch process design, including realistic examples of equipment sizing for batch sequencing; batch scheduling for multi-product plants; improving production via intermediate storage and parallel equipment; and new optimization techniques specifically for batch processes.
Coverage includes : Conceptualizing and analyzing chemical processes : flow diagrams, tracing, process conditions, and more. Chemical process economics : analyzing capital and manufacturing costs, and predicting or assessing profitability. Synthesizing and optimizing chemical processing : experience-based principles, BFD/PFD, simulations, and more Analyzing process performance via I/O models, performance curves, and other tools. Process troubleshooting and debottlenecking. Chemical engineering design and society : ethics, professionalism, health safety, and new green engineering techniques. Participating successfully in chemical engineering design teams. The book includes case studies and design projects with practical applications and appendixes with current equipment cost data and preliminary design information for eleven chemical processes including seven brand new to this edition.
