Process Design for Chemical Engineers Supplement Paperback – Import, 27 January 2013

Nice book to read and clarify process engineering doubts. Recommended for all mid level and beginners. Thanks to author and also kindle for providing it for free reading

Having good basic knowledge. Good for training purpose also.

Engineers pay huge sums of money to private coaching institutes to learn the same skills which are available in this book at a very affordable price to anyone. Highly recommended to anyone already working or willing to start a career in process design engineering.

This small book (p169) is a very useful introduction to process design and well within the price range of any final year chemical engineering undergraduate student.Particularly useful to the students, are the illustrations of the various items of equipment such as the various types of pumps, compressors, heat exchangers, vessels, control valves, relief valves, etc. together with a good text description of their characteristics and function.The principle weakness is the lack information regarding the various types of process reactor, such as, fluid bed, adiabatic fixed bed, tubular fixed bed, moving bed, rotary kiln, etc.Despite this limitation I shall advise all of my final year students to buy this affordable book for Plant Design Project.

A wonderful overview of some basic design principles if one manages to push past quite possibly the worst grammer in a published work. I highly recommend this book to all chemical engineers who are starting careers as process engineers either at production plants or EPC firms as it helps to bridge the knowledge gap between academia and industry.
