Luyben W.L. Principles and Case Studies of Simultaneous Design

Hoboken, New Jersey: Wiley & Sons Inc., 2011, - 344 стр.
An in-depth look at the general principles of design—complete with a rich series of case studies. Presenting general design principles in a concise format, this book guides readers in building an effective flowsheet and control structure when developing a chemical process. Aided by detailed economic design examples of typically complex industrial processes, the book encompasses all the methods and techniques essential to chemical process design in the creation of new facilities or the modifications of existing ones. In addition, it shows ways in which these methods can be applied to reactive distillation, reactor design, plant design, and various other chemical engineering processes.
