Elementary Principles of Chemical Processes

Gain a better understanding of chemical processes.

This text will provide you with a realistic, informative introduction to chemical processes. This 3rd edition has been completely revised to provide you with increased clarity, including:

  • Hundreds of new and revised problems and new case studies cover a broader spectrum of chemical engineering applications.
  • Guidance for solving problems that require spread sheeting and equation-solving software.
  • A CD-ROM that provides an active learning environment. With this software, students respond to questions and receive immediate feedback, explore variations in process parameters and see the effect of their changes on process operations, and more.
  • 2005 Edition icons in the text margin let you know when it’s most helpful to use the ICPP CD-ROM and the Student Workbook.

Conceptual Design of Chemical Processes

This text explains the concepts behind process design. It uses a case study approach, guiding readers through realistic design problems, and referring back to these cases at the end of each chapter. Throughout, the author uses shortcut techniques that allow engineers to obtain the whole focus for a design in a very short period (generally less than two days).

A Breakdown of the Various Engineering Jobs Available

Engineering recruitment and careers in general are split into a bewildering array of different subsections. How can one consider a software engineer to be performing the same type of jobs as a transport planning engineer? Although these two jobs are quite different, both of the workers choose to attack their tasks using rigorous scientific methods. An engineer is one who examines processes, and creates things for the better of our world in the most effective manner.
