Basic Principles and Calculations in Chemical Engineering by David Himmelblau
This best-selling introductory chemical engineering guide has been thoroughly revised, streamlined, and updated to reflect today's sweeping changes in chemical engineering curricula. It provides students with fundamental knowledge of processes that chemical engineers utilize in the refining and chemical industries as well as the bioengineering, nanoengineering, and microelectronics industries. Like previous editions, Basic Principles and Calculations in Chemical Engineering, 9th Edition, Global Edition offers a strong foundation of skills and knowledge for successful study and practice, guiding students through formulating and solving material and energy balance problems, as well as describing gases, liquids, and vapors. Throughout, it introduces efficient, consistent, student-friendly methods for solving problems, analyzing data, and gaining a conceptual, application-based understanding of modern chemical engineering processes. Coverage in previous editions has been condensed and streamlined to serve today's students and faculty more effectively. Two entirely new chapters have been added, presenting complete introductions to dynamic material and energy balances, and to Psychrometric Charts. Additionally, MATLAB® and Python™ codes have been integrated into the text.David M. Himmelblau was the Paul D. and Betty Robertson Meek and American Petrofina Foundation Centennial Professor Emeritus in Chemical Engineering at the University of Texas, where he taught for forty-two years. He authored eleven books and more than two hundred articles on process analysis, fault detection, and optimization. He was president of the CACHE Corporation and director of the AIChE.
James B. Riggs was a university professor for thirty years. Twenty-five of those years were spent at Texas Tech University, where he founded and directed the Texas Tech Process Control and Optimization Consortium. He authored several popular textbooks, including Computational Methods for Chemical Engineers; Programming with MATLAB for Engineers; and Chemical and Bio-Process Control, Fifth Edition.
