Distillation: Equipment and Processes Summary

Distillation: Equipment and Processes by Andrzej Gorak (Lehrstuhl fuer Fluidverfahrenstechnik, Facultat Bio- und Chemieingenieursswesen, Technische Universitaet Dortmund, Germany)

Distillation: Equipment and Processeswinner of the 2015 PROSE Award in Chemistry & Physics from the Association of American Publishersis a single source of authoritative information on all aspects of the theory and practice of modern distillation, suitable for advanced students and professionals working in a laboratory, industrial plants, or a managerial capacity. It addresses the most important and current research on industrial distillation, including all steps in process design (feasibility study, modeling, and experimental validation), together with operation and control aspects. This volume features an extra focus on distillation equipment and processes.
