Elsevier. 2002. 340p This books provides the student of chemical engineering with fully worked solutions to the problems posed in Chemical Engineering Volume 2 ‘Particle Technology and Separation Processes’ 5th Edition, and Chemical Engineering Volume 3 ‘Chemical and Biochemical Reactors & Process Control’ 3rd Edition. Whilst the main volumes contains illustrative worked examples throughout the text, this book contains answers to the more cha...

Elsevier. 2005. 1141p This book is one of the best-known and widely adopted texts available for students of chemical engineering. It deals with the application of chemical engineering principles to the design of chemical processes and equipment. Revised throughout, this Fourth Edition has been updated to cover the latest methods and techniques in the industry including process design, costing, safety and loss prevention techniques, equipment desi...

Cambridge University Press, 2009. 631p This overview of diffusion and separation processes brings unsurpassed, engaging clarity to this complex topic. Diffusion is a key part of the undergraduate chemical engineering curriculum and at the core of understanding chemical purification and reaction engineering. This spontaneous mixing process is also central to our daily lives, with importance in phenomena as diverse as the dispersal of pollutants to...

InTech. 2011. 318 p. This book offers several solutions or approaches in solving mass transfer problems for different practical chemical engineering applications: measurements of the diffusion coefficients, estimation of the mass transfer coefficients, mass transfer limitation in separation processes like drying, extractions, absorption, membrane processes, mass transfer in the microbial fuel cell design, and problems of the mass transfer couple...

Department of Chemical Engineering, Northwestern University, Evanston, IL 60208-3120 November 6, 1997, Submitted to Advances in Chemical Engineering. Mixing and dispersion of viscous fluids -- blending in the polymer processing literature -- is the result of complex interaction between flow and events occurring at drop length-scales: breakup, coalescence and hydrodynamic interactions. Similarly, mixing and dispersion of powdered solids in viscou...

Oxford University Press. 1997. 536p Employment opportunities for chemical engineers are moving away from petroleum and petrochemicals toward new applications such as materials processing, pharmaceuticals, and foods. Chemical reactors remain at the center of any chemical process; they are essential to improving existing processes and to designing new ones. Today and in the future chemical engineers must be able to use their knowledge of reactors i...

Wiley, Chichester, UK, 1993, 403 pages This book presents a wealth of knowledge on reaction kinetics and its application to chemical reactor design and operation; and intended as a text for students in technical college and graduate school, and also for scientists and engineers engaged in chemical research and development. This book is comprised of two parts; reviews of science and engineering as bases· for chemical reactor design; and several...
