Chemical and Energy Process Engineering
About this book
Emphasizing basic mass and energy balance principles, Chemical and Energy Process Engineering prepares the next generation of process engineers through an exemplary survey of energy process engineering, basic thermodynamics, and the analysis of energy efficiency. By emphasizing the laws of thermodynamics and the law of mass/matter conservation, the

a
bit
of
everything
that
could
have
been
placed
in
an
Appendix,
but
I
find
them
so
important
that
I
chose
to
place
them
first.
The
chapter
starts
with
an
overview
of
the
notation
and
a
discussion
on

Engineers
need
numbers
for
practical
calculations,
and
we
provide
an
overview
of
conversion
factors
and
some
important
numbers.
After
defining
some
important
concepts,
we
next
provide
an
overview
of
some
important
unit
operations.
We
look
at
the
difference
between
batch
and
continuous
processes
and
give
an
introduction
to
economic
analysis.
Finally,
you
find
some
fun
energy
exercises
which
will
make
you
familiar
with
the
use
of
numbers
and
conversion
between
units.
