Chemical and Bioprocess Engineering (eBook, PDF)

Fundamental Concepts for First-Year Students

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This is a unique introductory textbook that covers all aspects of both chemical and bioprocess engineering and provides a thorough grounding in the fundamentals so that the background may be used in future work. Included are more than 400 proposed and solved exercises, each classified by its level of difficulty. Each chapter contains references and selected web pages to vividly illustrate examples. To aid the reader, each chapter is marked according to Bloom's Taxonomy to indicate the level of attention given to each concept.

Rezensionen

Without any strategy at all I was trying to solve very simple material balance problems, and was constantly failing. After reading and conscientiously following the procedures proposed by Drs. Simpson and Sastry, the material balance exercises were never again a problem. I am very thankful for this book. -Paulina Galaz, Bachelor of Biochemistry, Universidad Católica de Chile.

Material balance problems can easily get complicated if you do not follow proper procedure. The method proposed in this book allowed me to correctly define the necessary steps and then solve complex problems, which could not have been solved without the application of such procedures. -Clio Peirano, Chemical Engineering, Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María.



During my first year of Chemical Engineering, material balance problems were a nightmare. Fortunately, I read and carefully study the proposed methods by Drs. Simpson and Sastry. Now I can proudly say that material balance is my strength. -Natalia Valencia, Chemical Engineering, Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María.
