Conceptual design of chemical processes / James M. Douglas

Information About

This book describes a systematic procedure for the conceptual design of a limited class of chemical processes. The goal of a conceptual design is to find the best process flowsheet and estimate the optimum design conditions. The problem is difficult because very many process alternatives could be considered.
