Description
This textbook, Chemical Engineering Material Balance and Process Calculations, has been carefully written to teach you important topics in material balance and process calculations by explaining them with a mindset to fully equip you in the topics. Whether you want this book for general studies of these topics or you want this book to study for an exam, you will find it a very useful tool.This textbook is a mass balance teacher which is suitable for students in universities and students in colleges. It will also serve as a useful tool for direct entry students who are preparing for entrance examinations into colleges and universities. This book is not only for engineering students but also for chemistry students or any student who is offering a course in chemistry.The step by step explanations presented in the worked examples are easy to understand since care was taken to sufficiently explain salient points and process ideas. Efforts have been made to achieve a complete and simplified explanation of every example given in this textbook. Many worked examples have been included in each topic in order to fully cover every complexity the topic might contain. This book will boost your level of understanding of material balance and process calculations. Numerous exercises at the end of each chapter are intended to test students' understanding of the topic. Therefore students are thus presented with an effective means of self-assessment whereby they can determine their individual strengths and revision needs.The topics covered in this eBook include:- MOLE FRACTION AND MASS FRACTION- AVERAGE MOLECULAR MASS- MATERIAL BALANCE: INTRODUCTION- BALANCES INVOLVING DRYING/EVAPORATIVE PROCESSES- BALANCES INVOLVING MIXING OF SOLUTIONS- BALANCES INVOLVING COMBUSTION- BALANCES INVOLVING LIMITING REACTANTS- BALANCES ON SEPARATION PROCESSES- BALANCES ON SOLVENT EXTRACTION- CALCULATIONS INVOLVING THE DETERMINATION OF FORMULA OF COMPOUNDS- PRESSURE IN LIQUID- HUMIDITY AND WATER VAPOUR IN THE AIR- EQUILIBRIUM REACTION CALCULATIONSReaders with chemistry and engineering mindsets will find these topics well simplified, thereby making chemical processes more interesting.A constructive review of this chemical text will be highly appreciated from buyers so as to give an overview to others who intend to purchase a copy of it, and also to be a form of advice for the author when revising the book.
