This book was released on 1999-10-15 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Multistage separation processes are essentially the heart and soul of the petroleum, petrochemical, and chemical industries. They yield products as common as gasoline and plastics and those as specialized as medical-grade pharmaceuticals. Predicting the Performance of Multistage Separation Processes provides chemical engineers with solid information and insights into these processes. It reaches beyond fundamental principles to focus on intuitive understanding and practical interpretation. To that end, it presents numerous examples from a variety of applications, effectively demonstrating the performance of processes under varying conditions and the relationship among the different operating variables. With major advances in computational techniques for solving complex multistage separation equations, a variety of simulation programs have emerged that allow accurate and efficient prediction of multistage separation processes. These are valuable and effective tools, but are often hampered by a lack of understanding of the fundamentals and limitations of prediction techniques. The author addresses these problems and pursues a strategy that decouples the discussion of conceptual analysis and the computational techniques. Although Dr. Khoury presents mathematical methods in detail, he gives special attention to keeping the practical interpretation of the models in focus and emphasizes intuitive understanding. He applies graphical techniques and shortcut methods wherever possible and includes industrial practice heuristics about the ranges of operating variables that will work. With its updates and the addition of more than 100 new applications problems and solutions, Predicting the Performance of Multistage Separation Processes, Second Edition is ideal for a methodical study of separation processes and as a reference for the fundamental principles and shortcuts useful to the working professional.

Book excerpt: The latest edition of a perennial bestseller, Multistage Separation Processes, Fourth Edition provides a clear and thorough presentation of the theoretical foundation, and understanding of the development, evaluation, design, and optimization steps of these processes, from both an academic and industrial perspective. The book’s emphasis on starting with theoretical models and their role in computer simulation, followed by practical applications, sets it apart from other texts on this topic. The author also highlights the importance of relating fundamental concepts to intuitive understanding of the processes. See What’s New in the Fourth Edition: Chapter on fluid-solid operations Expanded development of theories and methods for many applications Adds numerous industry-related examples and end-of-chapter problems Case studies combined with examples Updated and enhanced figures The book includes a generous number of examples from a wide variety of applications to relate theory to actual results, and to demonstrate the performance of process under varying conditions. The chapter topics follow a logical path that starts with basics and theoretical concepts, and progresses systematically into the various separation processes. Each chapter provides the information relevant to a specific topic, and refers to appropriate chapters in the book as needed. These features combine to give you the understanding required to make the best selections of property prediction and simulation techniques and avoid the cost incurred by the use of improper simulations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of computer-aided simulation programs for separation processes provides engineers with valuable tools to make more reliable qualitative and quantitative decisions in plant design and operation. Written by a specialist in modeling and optimization, Multistage Separation Processes, Third Edition clarifies the effective use of simulators by giving a conceptual analysis of the material and explaining various computation techniques. The book accentuates performance prediction, an essential component of the efficient design and operation, of multistage separation processes. Unlike other textbooks, this book emphasizes computer modeling, expert interpretation of models, and it discusses modern simulation techniques. It presents rigorous mathematical models of separation processes, illustrated by numerous examples from a variety of applications, and demonstrates their performance under varying conditions and different operating variables. The author also shows how shortcut and graphical methods can be used to make preliminary and reliable decisions on action plans. He explains the major algorithms used for solving multi-component separations and features techniques used to combat factors that affect control and optimization of separation processes. This third edition presents a significant amount of new information, including new material on column dynamics, batch distillation, membrane separations, dialysis, reverse osmosis, dynamic behavior, and multivariable control issues. Organized in self-contained chapters that follow a logical flow of ideas, the new edition of Multistage Separation Processes is an ideal textbook for advanced university students and a valuable reference for practicing engineers in the process industry and in engineering process design, particularly in the petroleum, petrochemical, and chemical industries.

Download or read book Distillation written by Johann G. Stichlmair and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distillation Principles and Practice Second Edition covers all the main aspects of distillation including the thermodynamics of vapor/liquid equilibrium, the principles of distillation, the synthesis of distillation processes, the design of the equipment, and the control of process operation. Most textbooks deal in detail with the principles and laws of distilling binary mixtures. When it comes to multi-component mixtures, they refer to computer software nowadays available. One of the special features of the second edition is a clear and easy understandable presentation of the principles and laws of ternary distillation. The right understanding of ternary distillation is the link to a better understanding of multi-component distillation. Ternary distillation is the basis for a conceptual process design, for separating azeotropic mixtures by using an entrainer, and for reactive distillation, which is a rapidly developing field of distillation. Another special feature of the book is the design of distillation equipment, i.e. tray columns and packed columns. In practice, empirical know-how is preferably used in many companies, often in form of empirical equations, which are not even dimensionally correct. The objective of the proposed book is the derivation of the relevant equations for column design based on first principles. The field of column design is permanently developing with respect to the type of equipment used and the know-how of two-phase flow and interfacial mass transfer.

Download or read book Finite Time Thermodynamics written by Stephen Berry and published by Mdpi AG. This book was released on 2022-09-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory around the concept of finite time describes how processes of any nature can be optimized in situations when their rate is required to be non-negligible, i.e., they must come to completion in a finite time. What the theory makes explicit is "the cost of haste". Intuitively, it is quite obvious that you drive your car differently if you want to reach your destination as quickly as possible as opposed to the case when you are running out of gas. Finite-time thermodynamics quantifies such opposing requirements and may provide the optimal control to achieve the best compromise. The theory was initially developed for heat engines (steam, Otto, Stirling, a.o.) and for refrigerators, but it has by now evolved into essentially all areas of dynamic systems from the most abstract ones to the most practical ones. The present collection shows some fascinating current examples.
