Principles of Chemical Engineering Practice

Beschreibung

Enables chemical engineering students to bridge theory andpractice Integrating scientific principles with practical engineeringexperience, this text enables readers to master the fundamentals ofchemical processing and apply their knowledge of such topics asmaterial and energy balances, transport phenomena, reactor design,and separations across a broad range of chemical industries. Theauthor skillfully guides readers step by step through the executionof both chemical process analysis and equipment design. Principles of Chemical Engineering Practice is dividedinto two sections: the Macroscopic View and the Microscopic View.The Macroscopic View examines equipment design and behavior fromthe vantage point of inlet and outlet conditions. The MicroscopicView is focused on the equipment interior resulting from conditionsprevailing at the equipment boundaries. As readers progress throughthe text, they'll learn to master such chemical engineeringoperations and equipment as: * Separators to divide a mixture into parts with desirableconcentrations * Reactors to produce chemicals with needed properties * Pressure changers to create favorable equilibrium and rateconditions * Temperature changers and heat exchangers to regulate and changethe temperature of process streams Throughout the book, the author sets forth examples that referto a detailed simulation of a process for the manufacture ofacrylic acid that provides a unifying thread for equipment sizingin context. The manufacture of hexyl glucoside provides a threadfor process design and synthesis. Presenting basic thermodynamics, Principles of ChemicalEngineering Practice enables students in chemical engineeringand related disciplines to master and apply the fundamentals and toproceed to more advanced studies in chemical engineering.
