Short description
Useful for chemical engineers and mechanical engineers, this book contains physical and chemical data section and provides coverage of distillation advances, liquid-liquid extraction, reactor modeling, biological processes, and biochemical and membrane separation processes. It includes chemical plant safety practices with accident case histories.
Long description
The previous editions have sold 140,000-plus copies. This book is useful for chemical engineers, chemists, material scientists, mechanical engineers, and biological scientists. The new figures and tables provided are in both SI units and U.S. units for international usage. It contains a hugely expanded physical and chemical data section and provides new coverage of distillation advances, liquid-liquid extraction, reactor modeling, biological processes, and biochemical and membrane separation processes. It includes chemical plant safety practices with accident case histories. The popular section on the most commonly used computer software has been greatly expanded.
