Armed with this book, chemical engineers will have a collection of modern strategies for the design of chemical products and processes. It emphasizes a systematic approach and integrates product design more thoroughly throughout the chapters. New case studies on process design are included to make the concepts more relevant. The social aspects and economics of product design are introduced, and the Stage-Gate Product Development Process is explored in parallel tracks for several chemical products. The accompanying CD-ROM also provides chemical engineers with numerous examples of the simulator input and output, with frame-by-frame instructions to discuss the nature of the models provided for the processing units.

High Quality Science requires High Quality Data! Today, more than ever, the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics is critical in ensuring that researchers, educators, and students have the highest quality data for chemical compounds and physical particles. Available both in print and online, the Handbook covers 390 chemistry, physics, and related subjects organized in easy-to-find, well-organized tables. Every year, new reported data and new scientific areas are added, making the Handbook the largest comprehensive physical science data source available anywhere. Handbook features include:All data reviewed and evaluated by subject matter expertsStandardized chemical names, structures, property names, and property unitsImportant information on subjects such as chemical and laboratory safety, and nomenclatureChemical and physical data critical for fields such as environmental science, bio-medical chemistry, organic and inorganic chemistry, materials innovation, geo- and astrophysics, and solid-state scienceDigital tools in our Online Edition to analyze, graph, process, and exploit our data content

The comprehensive guide to all stages of automotive paints and coating. New topics of interest covered by this second edition are colour control, specification and testing of coatings as well as quality and supply concepts.Now in its second edition and still the only book of its kind, this is an authoritative treatment of all stages of the coating process -- from body materials, paint shop design, and pre-treatment, through primer surfacers and top coats. New topics of interest covered are color control, specification and testing of coatings, as well as quality and supply concepts, while valuable information on capital and legislation aspects is given. Invaluable for engineers in the automotive and paints and coatings industry as well as for students in the field.

Esta novena edición, totalmente reestructurada y puesta al día, constituye una obra de síntesis que presenta las técnicas modernas de análisis químicos, biológicos y microbiológicos del agua. Con los avances tecnologicos mas recientes en el campo de la quimica analitica, esta nueva edicion presenta un contenido fundamentalmente renovado, pero conservando el espiritu y la forma de las anteriores ediciones. Enriquecida con datos referentes a los numerosos contaminantes organicos determinados por las nuevas reglamentaciones, integra los contaminantes emergentes y se basa en los nuevos indicadores biologicos que permiten la evaluacion del estado ecologico de las masas de agua. La interpretacion de los resultados analiticos ocupa un lugar preferente, lo que contribuye a que esta obra sea una referencia obligada para los profesionales del agua.

Esta obra de consulta basica y sin igual pone en manos de cada quimico, cientifico, ingeniero en la industria quimica y ambiental, un acervo de informacion y tecnologia invaluable. * Mas de 2''000,000 palabras. * Tablas con las propiedades fisicas de todos los compuestos. * Cada apartado incluye el termino equivalente en ingles.

Updating their hefty reference approximately every decade since 1958, chemical engineers Poling (U. of Toledo), John M. Prausnitz (U. of California-Berkeley), and John P. O'Connell (U. of Virginia) describe and critically review various estimation procedures for a limited number of properties of gases and liquids. Among those properties are critical and other pure component properties; pressure-volume- temperature relationships and thermodynamic properties of pure components and mixtures; vapor pressures and phase-change enthalpies; standard enthalpies of formation; standard Gibbs energy of formation; heat capacity; surface tension; viscosity; thermal conductivity; diffusion coefficients; and phase equilibria. They compare most of the estimated properties to experimental findings to indicate reliability, and illustrate most methods with examples.
