Poor Explanations, Nothing You Can't Get Elsewhere.......2006-01-07
I bought this book in 2000 because I was going back into consulting and needed to augment my quick-reference books. Contractors are paid by the hour! This book helped me solved exactly one problem. I did not write an editorial then because I hoped I would find out that I was wrong in my initial assessment. Everything else I could solve using various chemical engineering PE preparation material. This is stuff I either collected and condensed or got from other text. If you want a better choice refer to Randall Robinson's "Chemical Engineering Reference Manual." My main complaint about this book, besides that it digs deeper ruts in a well-worn trail is that the explanations are missing steps. I would not recommend this book to anyone.
Post Script
Other choices for the consulting chemical engineer include: Hicks, "Handbook of Engineering Calculations;" Coulson and Richardson's "Chemical Engineering Design, vol. 6;" Ludwig's series "Applied Process Design for Chemical and Petrochemical Plants," Stanley Walas's "Chemical Process Equipment, Selection and Design," and, Schweitzer's "Handbook of Separation Techniques for Chemical Engineers." Schweitzer has gotten quite expensive at $300 but I have an earlier edition and I doubt if it has been upgraded much. The Ludwig series is very expensive and not commendable to quick calculations. Coulson is useful for its short comparisons of unit operation methods while Hicks is good for everyday calculations. Walas is a good reference but its detail falls somewhat short, between Hicks and Ludwig. There are other books that may be useful but you will probably find, as I have, that it is a hit and miss proposition.
If this review was helpful, please add your vote -- Thanks.
Watch Out.......2005-10-16
The Redlich-Kwong equation given specific for pressure given in this text is in error. It should be:
P=(RT/(V-b))-(a/((Tr^.5)*V*(V+b)))
The procedure given for calculating specific volume is accurate as far as I know and I've been told that it is. The original equation of state is not stated correctly though which would affect a simple calculation for pressure such as in a pressure vessel given temperature and density of enclosed gas.
Nice step-by-step examples for various calculations.......2000-06-09
As a chemical engineer, this book rates up there with Perry's on value of information. Chopey does a very nice job of including detailed step-by-step calculations for a multitude of subjects. The many examples are very relevant to the text and provide good insight to the calculation process. The book is very well organized and easy to use.

Excellent organisation.......2007-01-10
Very to the point and well organized reference book. Author has managed to pinpoint what is essential when you are in a hurry and want to refresh your memory without getting buried in a "my equation is bigger than yours" kind of debate.
Excellent book, congratulations to the author!.......2006-07-19
Thank you thank thank you for whoever wrote this excellent guide to Piping calculations. The formulae and calculations are shown with great clarity and easy to follow + use in the field. If you couple this with a CAD program such as the one by Hercule Design then you are on a sure fire winner. Well done!
Piping Network.......2006-03-14
Generally, this book was good, very useful for Field Engineer those who involved in small to medium plant piping design.
To add our knowledge , I though more illustration about complex piping network will much be grateful.
Found a Typo.......2005-11-23
This really isn't a review of the book. Just a place to let the author - or somebody who can get to the author - know that I believe there is a typo on pg 455 on the Temp. derate factors. I'm thinking the T factor for the 350 degree F & 177 degree C should be .933 and not .033. I only looked briefly through it on-line, all I can say is it helped me out and was easy to follow!! I'm thinking of going to get one after I'm done writing this.

Air Pollution Engineering Manual
ASIN: 0470139021 |
Book Description
Because of the ubiquitous nature of environmental problems, a variety of scientific disciplines are involved in the development of environmental solutions. The Handbook of Chemical and Environmental Engineering Calculations provides approximately 600 real-world, practical solutions to environmental problems that involve chemical engineering, enabling engineers and applied scientists to meet the professional challenges they face day-to-day.
The scientific and mathematical crossover between chemical and environmental engineering is the key to solving a host of environmental problems. Many problems included in the Handbook are intended to demonstrate this crossover, as well as the integration of engineering with current regulations and environmental media such as air, soil, and water. Solutions to the problems are presented in a programmed instructional format. Each problem contains a title, problem statement, data, and solution, with the more difficult problems located near the end of each problem set. The Handbook offers material not only to individuals with limited technical background but also to those with extensive industrial experience.
Chapter titles include:
Chemical Engineering Fundamentals
Chemical Engineering Principles
Air Pollution Control Equipment
Solid Waste
Water Quality and Wastewater Treatment
Pollution Prevention
Health, Safety, and Accident Management
Ideal for students at the graduate and undergraduate levels, the Handbook of Chemical and Environmental Engineering Calculations is also a comprehensive reference for all plant and environmental engineers, particularly those who work with air, drinking water, wastewater, hazardous materials, and solid waste.
