Zusatztext "Professor Albright has done a fine job of bringing together a large number of contributions that cover the sector well. Many good examples are included throughout the text on the application of fundamental principles to engineering practice. This is a text that "grows" on a reader." "?Several chapters in this (Albright's) volume! particularly those on the fundamental aspects of fluid flow! heat and mass transfer! are written in a very "accessible" form that students and practitioners are likely to find very useful indeed. There are essential and well balanced chapters on patents and intellectual property and ethics! and there is sensible advice on communication. Overall! I would strongly recommend that libraries and departments in universities! as well as consultants and industrial engineers! purchase this book."-Professor Tim Langrish! The University of Sydney! New South Wales! Australia!in Drying Technology! Vol. 27! No. 6! 2009. Informationen zum Autor Lyle Albright Klappentext Surveying every facet of the chemical engineering field! this handbook serves the needs of practicing professional chemical engineers as well as students preparing to enter the field. Expert contributors bring readers thoroughly up to date on key issues in the field. Zusammenfassung Presents a source of methods, applications, and fundamental concepts that play a significant role in driving new research and improving plant design and operations. This handbook includes chapters that cover aspects of patents and intellectual property, practical communication, and ethical considerations that are relevant to engineers.
