Chemical Process Technology provides a comprehensive, balanced, and structured introduction to chemical process technology, linking the fundamental theory and concepts to the applied nature of the subject. The work gives the reader an understanding of the basic disciplines of the most important chemical processes and provides an essential bridge between the chemical sciences and the chemical industry. Starting off with a general look at the chemical industry, subsequent chapters examine different processes in greater detail, such as oil refinery, steam cracking, synthesis gas, bulk chemicals, and much more. In all chapters, processes are represented by simplified flow schemes to help the reader think in terms of conceptual process designs. To aid in reader comprehension, the work includes text boxes containing case studies and examples from various industries, questions throughout to stimulate debate, and richly illustrated chapters with figures and flow diagrams. Sample topics covered in the work include: Processes for the conversion of biomass: production of biofuels, bioethanol, biobutanol, diesel-type biofuels, succinic acid, biorefinery concepts, and existing and projected biorefineries Inorganic bulk chemicals: sulfuric acid, SO2 conversion reactor, catalyst deactivation, sulfur production, nitric acid, and NOx abatement Heterogeneous catalysis: catalyst design, size, and shape, reactor types, exchanging heat, role of catalyst deactivation, and other issues Production of polymers: polymerization reactions, catalyst development, application, exothermicity, and production of polyethenes As a comprehensive, updated, and modern resource for understanding many facets of chemical process technology, Chemical Process Technology is invaluable to students of chemical engineering, biotechnology, and industrial chemistry, as well as practicing chemical engineers.
