An invaluable guide for problem solving in mass transfer operationsThis book takes a highly pragmatic approach to providing the principles and applications of mass transfer operations by offering a valuable, easily accessible guide to solving engineering problems. Both traditional and novel mass transfer processes receive treatment. As with all of the books in this series, emphasis is placed on an example-based approach to illustrating key engineering concepts.The book is divided into two major parts. It starts with the principles underlying engineering problemsshowing readers how to apply general engineering principles to the topic of mass transfer operations. It then goes on to provide step-by-step guidance for traditional mass transfer operations, including distillation, absorption and stripping, and adsorption, plus novel mass transfer processes. Essential topics for professional engineering exams are also covered.Geared towards chemical, environmental, civil, and mechanical engineers working on real-world industrial applications, Mass Transfer Operations for the Practicing Engineer features: Numerous sample problems and solutions with real-world applications Clear, precise explanations on how to carry out the basic calculations associated with mass transfer operations Coverage of topics from the ground up for readers without prior knowledge of the subject Overview of topics relevant to the ABET (Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology) for those taking the Professional Engineering (PE) exams Appendix containing relevant mass transfer operation charts and tables

LOUIS THEODORE, ENG SCD, is a professor in the Chemical Engineering Department at Manhattan College in Bronx, New York, and the recipient of the prestigious Ripperton Award from the International Air and Waste Management Association's and the American Society for Engineering Education's AT&T Foundation Award for "excellence in the instruction of engineering students." Professor Theodore is a contributor to Perry's Chemical Engineers' Handbook, the coeditor of Handbook of Chemical and Environmental Engineering Calculations (Wiley), the coauthor of Thermodynamics for the Practicing Engineer (Wiley), and the author of Fluid Flow for the Practicing Chemical Engineer and Air Pollution Control Equipment Calculations, also from Wiley.FRANCESCO RICCI is the recipient of numerous academic awards and scholarships. Aside from academic research, Mr. Ricci's industrial experience includes short tenures at Air Products and Chemicals, Inc. and Bristol-Myers Squibb. He has lectured at the undergraduate level on chemical engineering thermodynamics as well as on reactor design. Mr. Ricci is the coauthor of Thermodynamics for the Practicing Engineer (Wiley), the author of the solutions manual for said text, and a contributing author to the 2009 title Introduction to Environmental Management.
