Practical process design for chemical engineers / Keith Marchildon and David Mody. - xvii, 382 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm
Includes index.
"In a chemical process, the transformation of raw materials into desired chemical products usually cannot be achieved in a single step. Instead, the overall transformation is broken down into a number of steps that provide intermediate transformations, for example by chemical reaction, separation, heating, cooling etc. Once the individual steps have been selected, they must be interconnected to carry out the overall transformation. Chemical process design requires the selection of a series of processing steps and their integration to form a complete manufacturing system, all while considering feasibility, cost, safety, environmental and societal impact, operability, maintainability, reliability, and constructability. It is an essential element of sustainable industrial activity"-- Provided by publisher.
