Description

This multi-touch book is a comprehensive introduction to the field of Chemical Engineering, aimed at College or University students in Science and Engineering.

The key concepts of mass and energy balances, sizing of chemical reactors, and heat transfer are covered in detail.

The popular process simulation software HYSYS is used to complement the calculations and problems solved in the book, with detailed instructions and ten embedded high-definition movies demonstrating how to set up the HYSYS simulations.

The book contains a wealth of solved examples within the text, as well as six extensive problem sets (one at the conclusion of each chapter), with fully worked solutions at the end of the book. In total there are 57 fully worked problems.

This makes it an ideal resource for academic staff teaching process engineering or chemical engineering, as well as students in Science, Engineering, and especially Chemical Engineering.
