Full Description
Process Plant Design for Chemical Engineers: Guide to Practical Aspects of Engineering Decision Making serves as a practical guide for making appropriate, evidence-based decisions in all elements of process design. Process design engineers need to make a very large number of choices during the design of a process plant. These decisions are crucial, yet there are many examples of very poor choices in real-world applications that have resulted in large financial losses, serious injury or even death. The objective of the book is to assist effective evidence-based decision making and minimize risk. This book provides descriptions and analysis of many examples of real applications from different industries as examples of good and bad decisions, particularly how the available information was used. The lessons learned from each example are considered and described to help engineers understand the risks associated with process design decisions and how to manage them effectively. The book serves as a valuable resource for both chemical engineering students and engineers in industry as it provides guidance on making evidence-based decisions to ensure successful outcomes. It will also be incredibly helpful to engineers faced with the task of scaling up a new process based on lab-scale research, especially those tasked with plant design and designing commercial scale processes. This book can also be a useful guide for students and engineers in a range of process industries such as chemical processing, minerals processing, food and wine, , energy engineering, and similar related engineering fields.
