Mechanical Operations For Chemical Engineers by C. M. Narayanan, B. C. Bhattacharya
Book Summary:
Mechanical operations play a vital role in any Chemical process industry. They are also of primary importance in mineral processing and metallurigical industries. However, consolidated text books that deal in detail with all these operations are painfully scarce till this date. Only scattered information are available in some of the books on Unit Operations. The authors wish to fill this void through this book as much as possible. This book could, therefore, be the first of its kind to bear a title like this and also to give a fully comprehensive treatment of this topic under a separate and exclusive identity.
One of the special features of the book is that in each chapter, maximum emphasis has been given to fundamental analy.sis and simulation of each operation rather than lengthy description of equipment used. A large number of worked examples based on real- life industrial data are also included in each chapter.
