Industrial Chemical Process Design
by: Douglas L. Erwin
Abstract: This book is a true engineer’s toolkit, providing the solutions to some of the most complex problems in Chemical process design: sizing equipment, estimating cost for modular packages and performing such operations as liquid-liquid extraction and gas in liquid separation vessel sizing and rating. Complex operations and formulas are presented and explained in an easy-to-understand format. Industrial/Chemical Process Design provides a step by step tutorial for authoring tailor made Visual Basic programs.
