This best-selling introductory chemical engineering guide has been thoroughly revised, streamlined, and updated to reflect today's sweeping changes in chemical engineering curricula. It provides students with fundamental knowledge of processes that chemical engineers utilize in the refining and chemical industries as well as the bioengineering, nanoengineering, and microelectronics industries.
Like previous editions, Basic Principles and Calculations in Chemical Engineering, 9th Edition, Global Edition offers a strong foundation of skills and knowledge for successful study and practice, guiding students through formulating and solving material and energy balance problems, as well as describing gases, liquids, and vapors. Throughout, it introduces efficient, consistent, student-friendly methods for solving problems, analyzing data, and gaining a conceptual, application-based understanding of modern chemical engineering processes.
Coverage in previous editions has been condensed and streamlined to serve today's students and faculty more effectively. Two entirely new chapters have been added, presenting complete introductions to dynamic material and energy balances, and to Psychrometric Charts. Additionally, MATLAB (R) and Python (TM) codes have been integrated into the text.
