Whereas chemical engineering has traditionally focused on the design of chemical processes to produce commodity chemicals, there has been increasing attention in the discipline on the engineering of high-performance chemical products. Chemical product design principles are now being incorporated into university curricula to ensure new chemical engineers can help meet industry demands. Bridging the gap between teaching and practice, Introduction to Chemical Product Design provides a comprehensive overview of chemical product design, explains the role of chemical engineers in different stages of chemical product design, and covers stepwise approaches used to design different types of chemical products. • Includes chemical product design steps with examples and case studies. • Features mini projects to illustrate the connection between product design stages. • Focuses on the most common types of problems that engineers encounter in their career. • Offers solved examples and exercise problems on manufacturing steps. • Considers the role of quality assurance and the tools to quantify environmental, health, and safety aspects. Aimed at undergraduate and graduate level students in chemical engineering, this textbook provides readers with practical know-how to apply chemical product design principles to develop and manufacture high-value products. It will also be of interest to practicing chemical engineers seeking to expand their knowledge of chemical product design. The book features a Solutions Manual for adopting professors.

Chemical Engineering Process Simulation is ideal for students, early career researchers, and practitioners, as it guides you through chemical processes and unit operations using the main simulation softwares that are used in the industrial sector. This book will help you predict the characteristics of a process using mathematical models and computer-aided process simulation tools, as well as model and simulate process performance before detailed process design takes place. Content coverage includes steady and dynamic simulations, the similarities and differences between process simulators, an introduction to operating units, and convergence tips and tricks. You will also learn about the use of simulation for risk studies to enhance process resilience, fault finding in abnormal situations, and for training operators to control the process in difficult situations. This experienced author team combines industry knowledge with effective teaching methods to make an accessible and clear comprehensive guide to process simulation.
