Plant Design and Economics for Chemical Engineers
Product Description The fifth edition of Plant Design and Economics for Chemical Engineers is a major revision of the popular fourth edition. There are new chapters on process synthesis, computer-aided design, and design of chemical reactors. A traditionally strong feature of the text, economic analysis, has been revamped and updated. Another strength, equipment sizing and cost estimation, is updated and expanded as well. These improvements also reflect changes in equipment availability. The numerous real examples throughout the book include computer or hand solutions, and often both. There is a new increased emphasis on computer use in design, economic evaluation, and optimization. Concepts, strategies, and approaches to computer use are featured. These concepts are not tied to particular software programs and therefore apply to wide a range of applications software, of both current and future release. This widely used text is now more useful than ever, providing a “one-stop” guide to chemical process design and evaluation. Book Info The numerous real examples throughout include computer or hand solutions. Concepts, strategies, and approaches to computer use are featured. Provides a one-stop basic guide to chemical process design and evaluation. Previous edition c1991. Reader Reviews This review is from: Plant Design and Economics for Chemical Engineers (Mcgraw Hill Chemical Engineering Series) (Hardcover) I never had much use for this text while in school. As with most subjects Senior year, we went too fast to appreciate it. With the years, however, I had cause to appreciate Peters & Timmerhaus. It is packed full of rules-of-thumb for preparations of cost estimates and comparing options. Although it is not the best place to end an economic investigation, it is the best place to start one.
