Unit Operations Handbook

"...exhaustive references, numerous illustrations and graphical presentation of data...aid the design of the equipment....the work is well done and the author and publisher deserve credit for bringing out this...book."---Chemical Industry News, 1993"...As many as 79 international experts from USA, UK, Canada, Japan, Germany, Switzerland, The Netherlands, Italy, Austria and Israel have contributed to make the two-volume set a comprehensive...information base on unit operations in chemical engineering. In all cases, emphasis is placed on the design, control and functioning of various operations. The set is valuable to all those connected with the design and control as well as research work involved with unit operations."---Chemical Engineering World, 1994
