Book Description:

This complete revision of Applied Process Design for Chemical and
Petrochemical Plants, Volume 1 builds upon Ernest E. Ludwigs classic text to
further enhance its use as a chemical engineering process design manual of
methods and proven fundamentals. This new edition includes important
supplemental mechanical and related data, nomographs and charts. Also included
within are improved techniques and fundamental methodologies, to guide the
engineer in designing process equipment and applying chemical processes to
properly detailed equipment.

All three volumes of Applied Process Design
for Chemical and Petrochemical Plants serve the practicing engineer by providing
organized design procedures, details on the equipment suitable for application
selection, and charts in readily usable form. Process engineers, designers, and
operators will find more chemical petrochemical plant design data
in:

Volume 2, Third Edition, which covers distillation and packed towers
as well as material on azeotropes and ideal/non-ideal systems.

Volume 3,
Third Edition, which covers heat transfer, refrigeration systems, compression
surge drums, and mechanical drivers.
