Product Description
Coulson and Richardson's classic series provides the student with an account of the fundamentals of chemical engineering and constitutes the definitive work on the subject for academics and practitioners.


This volume covers the application of chemical engineering principles to the design of chemical processes and equipment.

After an introductory chapter on the nature and methodology of the design process and its application to the design of chemical manufacturing processes - subsequent chapters cover process design and detail, safety and loss prevention, equipment selection, costings and flow sheets in depth. Later chapters cover the detailed design for equipment for separation processes and heat exchange.
The mechanical design of process equipment is also included and a chapter on more general site considerations closes the book.

A must for any Chemical Engineer
I found this book to be an excellent text and an invaluble resource for any Chemical Engineer whether a student or a working professional. The book is well laid out and a surprisingly easy read even for those beginning a chem eng course. I would recommend it to anyone.

An excellent book for professionals and university students.
A very good summary of chemical engineering. You can find everything you need related to mass and heat transfer. Very special thanks to Richardson and Coulson.

A must for any undergraduate chem eng design project!
As a graduate chemical engineer, fortunate to be one of Ray Sinnott's students, it is with great pleasure that I write about his book. The design project is a crucial part of any undergraduate program encompassing chemical engineering or related topics,ie Bio-chemical engineering and Process Bio-technology to name just a few. It is not until the student (of one of the most complex and challenging degree schemes) becomes involved with the "design project" do they realise the problems that need to be overcome to just start the most simple of tasks. The text is a valuable tool to quick and accurate methods to start the basic design of the majority of traditional unit operations. The text of course relies on the user to have some engineering knowledge and paves the way for the application of the more rigorous software design packages that are available today. Coverage is given is to many topics in the book especially in the areas of safe design/operation and costing, with many further references given at the end of chapter. This is a book that you will buy and continue to use all your practicing life, as myself and friends will testify!! There is no other text book that I have come across which gives so much practical information, yet so easily accessed. James Evans M.Eng. (University of Wales, Swansea.(UK))
