Description

The branch of engineering that uses the principles of chemistry, physics, biology, mathematics and economics for designing, production, transportation and transformation of energy and materials is referred to as chemical engineering. It is involved in plant design and operation including the assessment of safety and hazards, process design and analysis. It is also closely associated with control engineering, chemical reaction engineering, biological engineering, and nuclear engineering. Chemical engineering develops economic ways of using materials and energy. It includes chemistry and engineering that convert raw materials into usable products such as medicine, petrochemicals, and plastics. This textbook traces the progress of this field and explores some of its key concepts and applications. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, it makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. This book, with its detailed analyses and data, will prove immensely beneficial to professionals and students involved in this area at various levels.
