DESCRIPTION:
Subsequent editions have been published at approximately 5 year intervals. Ray Sinnott retired from full time teaching in 1995 but has maintained close contact with the engineering profession.. The main areas covered within these appointments were: Gas Production and Distribution, Nuclear Energy, Elastomers and Textile fibres. Ray Sinnott's varied career, mainly in design and development, began with several major companies inc
Chemical Engineering Volume 2 covers the properties of particulate systems, including the character of individual particles and their behaviour in fluids. Sedimentation of particles, both singly and at high concentrations, flow in packed and fluidised beads and filtration are then examined.The latter part of the book deals with separation processes, such as distillation and gas absorption, which illustrate applications of the fundamental principles of mass transfer introduced in Chemical Engineering Volume 1. In conclusion, several techniques of growing importance - adsorption, ion exchange, chromatographic and membrane separations, and process intensification - are described. * A logical progression of chemical engineering concepts, volume 2 builds on fundamental principles contained in Chemical Engineering volume 1 and these volumes are fully cross-referenced* Reflects the growth in complexity and stature of chemical engineering over the last few years* Supported with further reading at the end of each chapter and graded problems at the end of the book

Chemical Engineering in Great Britain. CMG This set of books is a good indication of the British view of what is the discipline of chemical engineering: "Momentum, Heat, and Mass Transfer"; "Separation Processes"; "Chemical Reaction Engineering"; and "Process Design". The first two volumes of "Coulson and Richardson" were initially part of the McGraw-Hill Series in Chemical Engineering in 1954.. "Perfect condition, better than I expected" according to Stefan Keane. Almost brand new. Perfect condition, better than I expected.
