The fifth edition of Plant Design and Ecomics for Chemical Engineers is a major revision of the popular fourth edition. There are new chapters on process synthesis, computer-aided design, and design of chemical reactors. A traditionally strong feature of the text, ecomic analysis, has been revamped and updated. Ather strength, equipment sizing and cost estimation, is updated and expanded as well. These improvements also reflect changes in equipment availability. The numerous real examples throughout the book include computer or hand solutions, and often both. There is a new increased emphasis on computer use in design, ecomic evaluation, and optimization. Concepts, strategies, and approaches to computer use are featured. These concepts are t tied to particular software programs and therefore apply to wide a range of applications software, of both current and future release. This widely used text is w more useful than ever, providing a one-stop guide to chemical process design and evaluation.
