Plant Design and Economics For Chemical Engineers

by Max S. Peters, Klaus D. Timmerhaus

The purpose of this book is to present economic and design principles as applied in chemical engineering processes and operations. No attempt is made to train the reader as a skilled economist, and, obviously, it would be impossible to present all the possible ramifications involved in the multitude of different plant designs. Instead, the goal has been to give a clear concept of the important principles and general methods. The subject matter and manner of presentation are such that the book should be of value to advanced chemical engineering undergraduates, graduate students, and practicing engineers.The information should also be of interest to administrators, operation supervisors, and research or development workers in the process industries.The first part of the text presents an overall analysis of the major factors involved in process design, with particular emphasis on economics in the process industries and in design work. Computer-aided design is discussed early in the book as a separate chapter to introduce the reader to this important topic with the understanding that this tool will be useful throughout the text. The various costs involved in industrial processes, capital investments and investment re-turns, cost estimation, cost accounting, optimum economic design methods, and other subjects dealing with economics are covered both qualitatively and quantitatively.The remainder of the text deals with methods and important factors in the design of plants and equipment. Generalized subjects, such as waste disposal, structural design, and equipment fabrication, are included along with design methods for different types of process equipment. Basic cost data and cost correlations are also presented for use in making cost estimates.
The book would be suitable for use in a one- or two-semester course for advanced undergraduate or graduate chemical engineers.It is assumed that the reader has a background in stoichiometry, thermodynamics, and chemical engineering principles as taught in normal first-degree programs in chemical engineering. Detailed explanations of the development of various design equations and methods are presented. The book provides a background of design and economic information with a large amount of quantitative interpretation so that it can serve as a basis for further study to develop complete understanding of the general strategy of process engineering design.
