Description This title aims to teach how to invent optimal and sustainable chemical processes by making use of systematic conceptual methods and computer
simulation techniques. The material covers five sections: process simulation; thermodynamic methods; process synthesis; process integration;
and design project including case studies. It is primarily intended as a teaching support for undergraduate and postgraduate students
following various process design courses and projects, but will also be of great value to professional engineers interested in the newest
design methods.
Audience
Chemical engineering and industrial chemistry university departments; libraries of companies in basic chemicals, petrochemicals, refining
and gas processing; engineering contractors; chemical engineers; undergraduate and postgraduate students.
