WilliamL. Luyben, "Principles and Case Studies of Simultaneous Design"
English | 2011 | ISBN: 0470927089 | 344 pages | PDF | 10 MB

An in-depth look at the general principles of design—complete with a richseries of case studies

Presenting general design principles in a concise format, Principles and CaseStudies of Simultaneous Design guides readers in building an effectiveflowsheet and control structure when developing a chemical process. Aided bydetailed economic design examples of typically complex industrial processes,this book encompasses all the methods and techniques essential to chemicalprocess design in the creation of new facilities or the modifications ofexisting ones. In addition, it shows ways in which these methods can be appliedto reactive distillation, reactor design, plant design, and various otherchemical engineering processes. Principles and Case Studies of SimultaneousDesign:

Is presented in a well-illustrated, large-size format with detailed schematics

Discusses conventional proportional—integral—derivative (PID) controlstructures to emphasize importance of maintaining product quality duringdisturbances

Includes ten detailed case studies that illustrate the principles of processdesign

Supplies case studies that contain rigorous steady-state economic evaluationsand dynamic plant-wide control studies

Provides completed detailed flowsheets with Aspen Plus files included, alongwith examples of dynamic simulations using Aspen Dynamics

Principles and Case Studies of Simultaneous Design offers students andengineers in the chemical, petroleum, and biochemical industries the essentialprinciples of design and control in a manner that cuts directly to the core ofthe most important technical information. Written in style that is approachableand easy to comprehend, this invaluable reference is sure to become a treasuredreference for any seasoned or aspiring engineer.
