Predicting the Performance of Multistage Separation Processes
Multistage separation processes are the heart of the petroleum processing and chemical production industries. They yield important products as common as gasoline and plastics and as specialized as medical-grade pharmaceuticals. This valuable new book provides process engineers and engineering students with solid information and insights into these processes. Its unique feature is that it goes beyond fundamental principles to emphasize intuitive understanding and practical interpretation. It presents numerous examples in a wide variety of applications to demonstrate the performance of processes under varying conditions and the relationships among the different operating variables. Focusing on computer modeling and modern simulation techniques, Predicting the Performance of Multistage Separation Processes is a valuable tool for evaluating performance trends, limitations, and bottlenecks. The book presents rigorous mathematical methods, but wherever possible, it applies shortcut methods to help engineers make reliable decisions quickly.
Predicting the Performance of Multistage Separation Processes, Second Edition
Multistage separation processes are essentially the heart and soul of the petroleum, petrochemical, and chemical industries. They yield products as common as gasoline and plastics and those as specialized as medical-grade pharmaceuticals. Predicting the Performance of Multistage Separation Processes provides chemical engineers with solid information and insights into these processes. It reaches beyond fundamental principles to focus on intuitive understanding and practical interpretation. To that end, it presents numerous examples from a variety of applications, effectively demonstrating the performance of processes under varying conditions and the relationship among the different operating variables. With major advances in computational techniques for solving complex multistage separation equations, a variety of simulation programs have emerged that allow accurate and efficient prediction of multistage separation processes. These are valuable and effective tools, but are often hampered by a lack of understanding of the fundamentals and limitations of prediction techniques. The author addresses these problems and pursues a strategy that decouples the discussion of conceptual analysis and the computational techniques. Although Dr. Khoury presents mathematical methods in detail, he gives special attention to keeping the practical interpretation of the models in focus and emphasizes intuitive understanding. He applies graphical techniques and shortcut methods wherever possible and includes industrial practice heuristics about the ranges of operating variables that will work. With its updates and the addition of more than 100 new applications problems and solutions, Predicting the Performance of Multistage Separation Processes, Second Edition is ideal for a methodical study of separation processes and as a reference for the fundamental principles and shortcuts useful to the working professional.
Predicting the Performance of Multistage Separation Processes
Chemical engineer Khoury explains the performance prediction of multistage separation processes for interactions between vapor and liquids. These processes are at the heart of the petroleum, petrochemical, and chemical industries. Although mathematical models are presented in some detail, special attention is paid to the practical interpretation of the models. Industrial heuristics about what ranges of operating variables will work are also included. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
