Process Operations: Lessons Learned in a Nontechnical Language

Description

Geared to young and seasoned professionals alike, "Process Operations: Lessons Learned in a Nontechnical Language" is designed to present a straightforward approach to mastering the principles and concepts all process engineers should be able to apply without the need of a computer. While simulations and models are useful for examining long-term operational issues, they cannot replace the dimension of human logic and reason required when tackling the array of complex—and sometimes life threatening— situations that occur in process plants. Using the author’s experiences from over 58 years in the process industry, Process Operations: Lessons Learned in a Nontechnical Language provides approaches to understanding core process concepts in ways that will equip the engineer to walk out of an office into a plant and directly resolve process deficiencies via small operational changes or simple retrofits.
