Description
Separation Process Principles with Applications Using Process Simulator, 4th Edition is the most comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of the major separation operations in the chemical industry. The 4th edition focuses on using process simulators to design separation processes and prepares readers for professional practice. Completely rewritten to enhance clarity, this fourth edition provides engineers with a strong understanding of the field. With the help of an additional co-author, the text presents new information on bioseparations throughout the chapters. A new chapter on mechanical separations covers settling, filtration and centrifugation including mechanical separations in biotechnology and cell lysis. Boxes help highlight fundamental equations. Numerous new examples and exercises are integrated throughout as well.
New to Edition

• New Focus on process simulations using Aspen Plus, CHEMCAD, and ChemSep to design separation operations.

• New Chapters 1, 2, 4-13 have been revised.

• New and revised examples and exercises.

Features

• The fourth edition provides comparisons of features of process simulators as well as examples of how they are used to solve industrial-level design problems.

• When the authors introduce a new separation technology, they provide a flow sheet and description of an industrial process to demonstrate how to the technology is used to create saleable products.

• Examples, homework exercises, and end of chapter questions throughout the text reinforce the use of process simulators.
