The Leading Integrated Chemical Process Design Guide: With Extensive Coverage of Equipment Design and Other Key Topics More than ever effective design is the focal point of sound chemical engineering. Analysis Synthesis and Design of Chemical Processes Fifth Edition presents design as a creative process that integrates the big-picture and small details and knows which to stress when and why. Realistic from start to finish it moves readers beyond classroom exercises into open-ended real-world problem solving. The authors introduce up-to-date integrated techniques ranging from finance to operations and new plant design to existing process optimization. The fifth edition includes updated safety and ethics resources and economic factors indices as well as an extensive new section focused on process equipment design and performance covering equipment design for common unit operations such as fluid flow heat transfer separations reactors and more. Conceptualization and analysis: process diagrams configurations batch processing product design and analyzing existing processes Economic analysis: estimating fixed capital investment and manufacturing costs measuring process profitability and more Synthesis and optimization: process simulation thermodynamic models separation operations heat integration steady-state and dynamic process simulators and process regulation Chemical equipment design and performance: a full section of expanded and revamped coverage of designing process equipment and evaluating the performance of current equipment Advanced steady-state simulation: goals models solution strategies and sensitivity and optimization results Dynamic simulation: goals development solution methods algorithms and solvers Societal impacts: ethics professionalism health safety environmental issues and green engineering Interpersonal and communication skills: working in teams communicating effectively and writing better reports This text draws on a combined 55 years of innovative instruction at West Virginia University (WVU) and the University of Nevada Reno. It includes suggested curricula for one- and two-semester design courses case studies projects equipment cost data and extensive preliminary design information for jump-starting more detailed analyses.
