Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"In response to the forecasts for growth in refining, the worldwide impact of environmental regulations, and the increasing demand for certain product classes, this Second Edition has been completely updated to discuss the technological, pollution control, and economic aspects of nearly 60 major processes." "Each technology covered includes a detailed description and review of process chemistry and thermodynamics, product and byproduct specification, wastes and emissions, and capital and operation costs - everything needed for the initial evaluation of a refinery addition or new grass roots refinery." "This new edition is an invaluable resource for all engineers working in the petroleum and chemical processing industries during this time of industry resurgence."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
