Submit a ProposalPetroleum Refining Design and Applications Handbook Volume 3
 | Mechanical Separation, Distillation, Packed Towers, Liquid-Liquid Extraction, Heat Transfer and Process Safety Incidents By A. Kayode Coker Copyright: 2022 | Status: Published ISBN: 9781119794868 | Hardcover | 1210 pages Price: $295 USD  |
One Line Description
The third volume of a four-volume set of the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of the advances of petroleum refining designs and applications, written by one of the world’s most well-known process engineers, this is a must-have for any chemical, process, or petroleum engineer.
Audience
Petroleum, chemical, and process engineers, petroleum and chemical engineering students, engineers and technicians working in petroleum refining, other engineers and technicians in the oil and gas industry, and engineers working towards Professional Engineering qualifications
Petroleum, chemical, and process engineers, petroleum and chemical engineering students, engineers and technicians working in petroleum refining, other engineers and technicians in the oil and gas industry, and engineers working towards Professional Engineering qualifications
Description
This third volume in the Petroleum Refining set, this book continues the most up-to-date and comprehensive coverage of the most significant and recent changes to petroleum refining, presenting the state-of-the-art to the engineer, scientist, or student.
This book provides the design of process equipment, such as vessels for the separation of two-phase and three-phase fluids, using Excel spreadsheets, and extensive process safety investigations of refinery incidents, distillation, distillation sequencing, and dividing wall columns. It also covers multicomponent distillation, packed towers, liquid-liquid extraction using UniSim design software, shell and tube heat exchangers, double pipe heat exchangers, air-cooled exchangers, energy management and pinch analysis, and process safety incidents involving these equipment items and pertinent industrial case studies.
Use of UniSim Design (UniSim STE) software is illustrated in further elucidation of the design of shell and tube heat exchangers, condensers, and UniSim ExchangerNet R470 for the design of heat exchanger networks using pinch analysis. This is important for determining minimum cold and hot utility requirements, composite curves of hot and cold streams, the grand composite curve, the heat exchanger network, and the relationship between operating cost index target and the capital cost index target against ΔTmin.
Useful as a textbook, this is also an excellent, handy go-to reference for the veteran engineer, a volume no chemical or process engineering library should be without. Written by one of the world’s foremost authorities, this book sets the standard for the industry and is an integral part of the petroleum refining renaissance. It is truly a must-have for any practicing engineer or student in this area.
