- Full title :Mass transfer operations for the practicing engineer / Louis Theodore, Francesco Ricci.
Summary
"Part of the Essential Engineering Calculations Series, this book presents step-by-step solutions of the basic principles of mass transfer operations, including sample problems and solutions and their applications, such as distillation, absorption, and stripping. Presenting the subject from a strictly pragmatic point of view, providing both the principles of mass transfer operations and their applications, with clear instructions on how to carry out the basic calculations needed, the book also covers topics useful for readers taking their professional exams"--. "The book is divided into three parts: Introduction, Applications, and Other Topics. The first part provides a series of chapters concerned with principles that are required when solving most engineering problems, including those in mass transfer operations. The second part deals exclusively with specific mass transfer operations, e.g., distillation, absorption and stripping, adsorption, etc. The last part provides an overview of ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology) related topics as they apply to mass transfer operations, plus novel mass transfer processes."
"This book takes a highly pragmatic approach to providing the principles and applications of mass transfer operations by offering a valuable, easily accessible guide to solving engineering problems. - Both traditional and novel mass transfer processes receive treatment. As with all of the books in this series, emphasis is placed on an example-based approach to illustrating key engineering concepts. - "The book is divided into two major parts. It starts with the principles underlying engineering problems--Showing readers how to apply general engineering principles to the topic of mass transfer operations. - It then goes on to provide step-by-step guidance for traditional mass transfer operations, including distillation, absorption and stripping, and adsorption, plus novel mass transfer processes. - Essential topics for professional engineering exams are also covered."--Jacket.
