Book Synopsis******Recently Published!******Unit Operations of Chemical Engineering, 7th edition continues its lengthy, successful tradition of being one of McGraw-Hill's oldest texts in the Chemical Engineering Series. Since 1956, this text has been the most comprehensive of the introductory, undergraduate, chemical engineering titles available. Separate chapters are devoted to each of the principle unit operations, grouped into four sections: fluid mechanics, heat transfer, mass transfer and equilibrium stages, and operations involving particulate solids.Now in its seventh edition, the text still contains its balanced treatment of theory and engineering practice, with many practical, illustrative examples included. Almost 30% of the problems have been revised or are new, some of which cover modern topics such as food processing and biotechnology. Other unique topics of this text include diafiltration, adsorption and membrane operations.Table of ContentsSection 1 Introduction1 Definitions and PrinciplesSection 2 Fluid Mechanics2 Fluid Statics and Its Applications3 Fluid Flow Phenomena4 Basic Equations of Fluid Flow5 Incompressible Flow in Pipes and Channels6 Flow of Compressible Fluids7 Flow past Immersed Objects8 Transportation and Metering of Fluids9 Agitation and Mixing of LiquidsSection 3 Heat Transfer and Its Applications10 Heat Transfer by Conduction11 Principles of Heat Flow in Fluids12 Heat Transfer to Fluids without Phase Change13 Heat Transfer to Fluids with Phase Change14 Radiation Heat Transfer15 Heat-Exchange Equipment16 EvaporationSection 4 Mass Transfer and Its Applications17 Principles of Diffusion and Mass Transfer between Phases18 Gas Absorption19 Humidification Operations20 Equilibrium-Stage Operations21 Distillation22 Introduction to Multicomponent Distillation23 Leaching and Extraction24 Drying of Solids25 Fixed-Bed Separatons26 Membrane Separation Processes27 CrystallizationSection 5 Operations Involving Particulate Solids28 Properties and Handling of Particulate Solids29 Mechanical SeparationsAppendix 1 Conversion Factors and Constants of NatureAppendix 2 Dimensionless GroupsAppendix 3 Dimensions, Capacities, and Weights of Standard Steel PipeAppendix 4 Condenser and Heat-Exchanger Tube DataAppendix 5 Tyler Standard Screen ScaleAppendix 6 Properties of Liquid WaterAppendix 7 Properties of Saturated Steam and WaterAppendix 8 Viscosities of GasesAppendix 9 Viscosities of LiquidsAppendix 10 Thermal Conductivities of MetalsAppendix 11 Thermal Conductivities of Various Solids and Insulating MaterialsAppendix 12 Thermal Conductivities of Gases and VaporsAppendix 13 Thermal Conductivities of Liquids Other Than WaterAppendix 14 Specific Heats of GasesAppendix 15 Specific Heats of LiquidsAppendix 16 Prandtl Numbers for Gases at 1 atm and 100CAppendix 17 Prandtl Numbers for LiquidsAppendix 18 Diffusivities and Schmidt Numbers for Gases in Air at 0c and 1 atmAppendix 19 Collision Integral and Lennard-Jones Force Constants

McGraw-Hill Education - Europe Niebels Methods Standards Work Design

Book SynopsisThis edition addresses the increasing global competition and the fact that every industry, business, and service organization is restructuring itself to operate more effectively. Cost-effectiveness and product reliability without excess capacity are the keys to successful activity in business, industry, and government. These keys are the end results of methods engineering.The 13th edition of Methods, Standards, and Work Design will provide practical, up-to-date descriptions of engineering methods to measure, analyze, and design manual work. The text emphasizes both the manual components and the cognitive aspects of work, recognizing the gradual decline of the manufacturing sector and the growth of the service sector. The importance of ergonomics and work design as part of methods engineering emphasizes not only increased productivity, but also to improve worker health and safety, and thus, company bottom-line costs. In the twenty-first century it is essential that the industTable of ContentsNiebel's Methods, Standards, and Work Design 12eChapter 1: Methods, Standards, and Work Design: IntroductionChapter 2: Problem-Solving ToolsChapter 3: Operation AnalysisChapter 4: Manual Work DesignChapter 5: Workplace, Equipment, and Tool DesignChapter 6: Work Environment DesignChapter 7: Design of Cognitive WorkChapter 8: Workplace and Systems SafetyChapter 9: Proposed Method ImplementationChapter 10: Time StudyChapter 11: Performance Rating and AllowancesChapter 12: Standard Data and FormulasChapter 13: Predetermined Time SystemsChapter 14: Work SamplingChapter 15: Indirect and Expense Labor StandardsChapter 16: Standards Follow-Up and UsesChapter 17: Wage PaymentChapter 18: Training and Other Management PracticesAppendices1 Glossary2 Helpful Formulas3 Special Tables

Book SynopsisThis is a major new handbook that covers hundreds of subjects that cross numerous industry sectors; however, the handbook is heavily slanted to oil and gas environmental management, control and pollution prevention and energy efficient practices. Multi-media pollution technologies are covered : air, water, solid waste, energy. Students, technicians, practicing engineers, environmental engineers, environmental managers, chemical engineers, petroleum engineers, and environmental attorneys are all professionals who will benefit from this major new reference source. The handbook is organized in three parts. Part A provides an extensive compilation of abbreviations and concise glossary of pollution control and engineering terminology. More than 400 terms are defined. The section is intended to provide a simple look-up guide to confusing terminology used in the regulatory field, as well as industry jargon.
