"Here is a handy, concise reference to save engineers time and effort in solving problems in design, process improvement, operation and troubleshooting. Included are practical experience for reactors, and equipment for size reduction and enlargement, mixing and blending, and physical separations - topics that are rarely given in other sourcebooks. This is not a listing of facts; rather it is a synthesis of data from the author's experience, colleagues in industry and hundreds of sources, expressed with consistent terminology and SI units to make use easy." "Extensive cross-referencing guides the engineer in locating equipment used for many different purposes. A detailed index quickly and reliably directs engineers in their everyday work at process plants: from keywords to solutions in a matter of minutes. Key dimensionless groups, handy conversion factors, and vapour pressure data are included." "Practical how-to tips are given for handling corrosion, controlling processes, design, process improvement, problem solving, goal setting, team work, performance reviews, listening, communication, leadership and much more."--Page 4 of cover.
