Solution Manual Plant Design and Economics for Chemical Engineers

This book, originally part of the Chemical Engineering series, evolved as a standalone design textbook. Initially intended for undergraduate design projects, it emphasizes practical process and equipment design, referring readers to fundamental principles in other series volumes. In adapting for the North American market, the authors created a comprehensive guide applicable to chemical engineering curricula, covering diverse industries. Incorporating North American standards, safety regulations, and environmental legislation, the book provides a global perspective. It advocates for early exposure to commercial design software, discouraging academic tools, and emphasizes the importance of discretion and engineering judgment in utilizing computer-aided design. While offering practical insights, the book recognizes that the true art of design comes from practical experience, providing readers with a modest foundation for the road ahead.

were detailed specifications for a correlated series of more than a dozen text and reference books, including a chemical engineers' handbook and basic textbooks on the elements and principles of chemical engineering, on industrial applications of chemical synthesis, on materials of construction, on plant design, on chemical-engineering economics. Broadly outlined, too, were plans fori monographs on unit operations and processes and on other industrial subjects to be developed as the need became apparent.

Chemical engineers are essential for developing, designing, and operating processes crucial to society. According to Hardigg, engineering can be made understandable to the public by discussing four major concepts: structures, machines, networks, and processes. The focus on processes is what sets chemical engineering apart from other engineering fields. However, designing chemical plants also requires input from other engineering disciplines. Students transitioning to process design need to think more globally, moving beyond their compartmentalized education, which can be challenging. One student noted that process design was a completely new way of thinking for him. To stay updated on the skills needed for process engineers, the author reads job ads. For instance, General Dynamics in San Diego seeks chemical engineers with experience in plant operations or process engineering because they bring a comprehensive process perspective and strong problem-solving abilities.
