Reference Book on Chemical Engineering, Volume 1

D. Sen., “Reference Book on Chemical Engineering, Volume 1”
New Age International | 2005 | ISBN: 8122423310, 8122416608 | 363 pages | PDF | 2,15 MB

PREFACE
A Chemical Engineer needs to know not only the inside changes in a Production
Process viz. Chemical, Physical, Thermochemical, Thermodynamics and Kinetics, but
also he has to know the basics of other engineering disciplines as well as current
developments. During my long service period in Production, Process Design and Projects,
I found most of these information are available at different sources and is not always
possible to acquire this information always. 'Ib meet these gaps, I have given as much
information as possible in Volume I and Volume II of this book on various processes, data
tables, some unit operations etc. usually required by Professional Chemical Engineers
and Chemical Engg. students. In addition, a chapter on Glossary of Terms has a]so been
provided for refreshing the essential information un chemistry and other topics.

Springer | 2009-08-31 | ISBN: 1441905030 | 352 pages | PDF | 3,1 MB

Embedded System Design: Modeling, Synthesis and Verification introduces a model-based approach to system level design. It presents modeling techniques for both computation and communication at different levels of abstraction, such as specification, transaction level and cycle-accurate level. It discusses synthesis methods for system level architectures, embedded software and hardware components. Using these methods, designers can develop applications with high level models, which are automatically translatable to low level implementations. This book, furthermore, describes simulation-based and formal verification methods that are essential for achieving design confidence. The book concludes with an overview of existing tools along with a design case study outlining the practice of embedded system design. Specifically, this book addresses the following topics in detail:

. System modeling at different abstraction levels

. Model-based system design

. Hardware/Software codesign

. Software and Hardware component synthesis

. System verification

This book is for groups within the embedded system community: students in courses on embedded systems, embedded application developers, system designers and managers, CAD tool developers, design automation, and system engineering.

Handbook of Natural Gas Transmission and Processing

Chemical Micro Process Engineering: Processing and Plants

Volker Hessel, Holger Lowe, Andreas Muller, Gunther Kolb, "Chemical Micro Process Engineering: Processing and Plants"
Wiley-VCH | 2005-05-06 | ISBN: 3527309985 | 681 pages | PDF | 16,2 MB

Micro process engineering is approaching both academia and industry. With the provision of micro devices, systems and whole plants by commercial suppliers, one main barrier for using these units has been eliminated.
This book focuses on processes and their plants rather than on devices: what is 'before', 'behind' and 'around' micro device fabrication - and gives a comprehensive and detailed overview on the micro-reactor plants and three topic-class applications which are mixing, fuel processing, and catalyst screening. Thus, the book reflects the current level of development from 'micro-reactor design' to 'micro-reactor process design'.

The Engineering of Chemical Reactions

Lanny D. Schmidt "The Engineering of Chemical Reactions (Topics in Chemical Engineering) "
Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA | Pages: 560 | 1997-12-04 | ISBN: 0195105885 | PDF | 16MB

Product Description:

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 in combination with other skills in order to think creatively and strategically about new processes and growing applications.
The Engineering of Chemical Reactions addresses these issues by focusing on the analysis of chemical reactors while simultaneously providing a description of industrial chemical processes and the strategies by which they operate. Ideal for upper-level undergraduate courses in chemical reactor
engineering and kinetics, this text provides a concise, up-to-date alternative to similar texts. In addition to the analysis of simple chemical reactors, it considers more complex situations such as multistage reactors and reactor-separation systems. Energy management and the role of mass transfer
in chemical reactors are also integrated into the text.
The evolution of chemical engineering from petroleum refining, through petrochemicals and polymers, to new applications is described so that students can see the relationships between past, present, and future technologies. Applications such as catalytic processes, environmental modeling,
biological reactions, reactions involving solids, oxidation, combustion, safety, polymerization, and multiphase reactors are also described.
The text uses a notation of reaction stoichiometry and reactor mass balances which is kept simple so that students can see the principles of reactor design without becoming lost in complex special cases. Numerical methods are used throughout to consider more complex problems. Worked examples are
given throughout the text, and over 300 homework problems are included. Both the examples and problems cover real-world chemistry and kinetics.

Reaction Engineering for Pollution Prevention by R.P. Hesketh (Editor), Martin A. A. Abraham (Editor)

Reaction Engineering for Pollution Prevention by R.P. Hesketh (Editor), Martin A. A. Abraham (Editor)
Publisher: Elsevier Science | 9 Feb 2000 | ISBN: 0444502157 | Pages: 332 | PDF | 16.8 MB

This book defines environmental reaction engineering principles, including reactor design, for the development of processes that provide an environmental benefit. With regard to pollution prevention, the focus is primarily on new reaction and reactor technologies that minimize the production of undesirable side-products (pollutants), but the use of reaction engineering as a means of treating wastes that are produced through other means is also considered.

First is a section on environmentally benign combustion. The three papers discuss methods of reducing the formation of PAHs and NOx, as well as other environmentally sensitive combustion products. The next section contains a collection of contributions that involve the use of a catalyst to support the reaction. Following this is a section on the use of supercritical fluid solvents as environmentally friendly media for chemical reactions. Finally, a series of papers is presented in which novel reactor designs are utilized to obtain product yields not possible in conventional reactor systems. These include the use of reactor-absorber systems, reactive distillation, and reactive membranes.

The book concludes with a chapter contributed by the editors which discusses the educational aspects of pollution prevention. It is necessary for future generations of engineers to be trained to design processes that are inherently environmentally benign. This chapter assembles resource materials for educators which will spark the creative instincts of the researchers using the materials contained within this book to develop new resources for pollution prevention education.

The broad spectrum of topics included in this book indicates the diversity of this area, and the vibrant nature of the ongoing research. The possibilities of producing desirable products without the formation of waste byproducts are bounded only by the creativity of the reaction engineer.
