Process Intensification: Faster, Better, Cheaper presents basic concepts and applications of process intensification (PI) and links their common effects across processes. It defines two fundamental parameters, PI factor, and Cost Impact (CI) factor, and uses these to analyze various applications where Process Intensification has been carried out.
Process Intensification principles have been applied to diverse fields, ranging from biodiesel production to offshore processing, and this book unifies these aspects to identify the common factors that drive process enhancements. Each chapter investigates a specific application, discusses the key PI principles, and includes problem sets and examples. The book also provides case studies and real-world examples throughout the chapters.
Features:
- Explores Cost Impact of Process Intensification, and their relative magnitudes, as a universal metric.
- Covers a range of industrial applications, including heat and mass transfer, atomization and comminution, and nano-composite synthesis.
- Discusses the application of Process Intensification for clean technology and environmental remediation.
- Includes end-of-chapter problems, examples, and case studies.
- Features a Solutions Manual for instructor use.
The book suits senior undergraduate chemical and mechanical engineering students taking courses in Process Design, Process Optimization, Process Synthesis, and Process Intensification.
A Solutions Manual and Lecture Slides are available online for course instructors.
