Produktbeschreibung

Ludwig's Applied Process Design for Chemical and Petrochemical Plants Incorporating Process Safety Incidents, Fifth Edition, Volume One is ever evolving and provides improved techniques and fundamental design methodologies to guide the practicing engineer in designing process equipment and applying chemical processes to properly detailed hardware. Like its predecessor, this new edition continues to present updated information for achieving optimum operational and process conditions and avoiding problems caused by inadequate sizing and lack of internally detailed hardware. The volume provides both fundamental theories, where applicable, and direct application of these theories to applied equations essential in the design effort.

This approach in presenting design information is essential for troubleshooting process equipment and in executing system performance analysis. Volume 1 covers process planning, flow-sheeting, scheduling, cost estimation, economic factors, physical properties of liquids and gases, fluid flow, mixing of liquids, mechanical separations, process safety, pressure-relieving devices, metallurgy and corrosion, and process optimization. The book builds upon Ludwig's classic text to further enhance its use as a chemical engineering process design manual of methods and proven fundamentals. This new edition includes new content on three-phase separation, ejectors and mechanical vacuum systems, process safety management, HAZOP and hazard analyses, and optimization of chemical process/blending.

? Provides improved design manual for methods and proven fundamentals of process design with related data and charts
? Covers a complete range of basic day-to-day petrochemical operation topics. Extensively revised with new materials on Non-Newtonian fluids, homogeneous and heterogeneous flow, and pressure drop, ejectors, phase separation, metallurgy and corrosion and optimization of chemical process/blending
? Presents many examples using Honeywell UniSim Design software, developed and executable computer programs, and Excel spreadsheet programs
? Includes case studies of process safety incidents, guidance for troubleshooting, and checklists
? Includes Software of Conversion Table and 40+ process data sheets in excel format
