Efficient separation processes hold immense significance in addressing a wide range of societal challenges, spanning from the development of innovative medicines to enhancing energy efficiency and mitigating emissions. Separation Process Engineering, Fifth Edition, authored by Phillip C. Wankat, stands as the most comprehensive and user-friendly guide to modern separation techniques and the core principles of mass transfer. In this extensively revised edition, Wankat employs detailed, realistic examples accompanied by up-to-date simulation practice, spreadsheet-based exercises, and comprehensive references to effectively teach each key concept.
Wankat delves into a comprehensive range of separation processes, encompassing flash, column, and batch distillation; precise calculations and shortcut methods for multicomponent distillation; staged and packed column design; absorption; stripping; and numerous other methods. His extensive discussions of mass transfer and diffusion empower faculty to impart separations and mass transfer concepts within a single course. Furthermore, the detailed coverage of liquid-liquid extraction, adsorption, chromatography, and ion exchange equips students with the necessary skills for advanced work.
New and updated content in this edition includes comprehensive coverage of melt crystallization, steam distillation, residue curve analysis, batch washing, the Shanks system for percolation leaching, eutectic systems, forward osmosis, microfiltration, and hybrid separations. A dedicated chapter focuses on economics and energy conservation, encompassing updated equipment costs. Additionally, over 300 new and revised homework problems have been meticulously tested in undergraduate courses at Purdue University, ensuring their relevance and effectiveness.
A new chapter dedicated to melt crystallization explores solid-liquid phase equilibrium, suspension, static and falling film layer approaches, and presents 34 questions and problem-solving exercises. This chapter further enhances the book's utility as a valuable resource for students and professionals in the field of chemical engineering.
In conclusion, Separation Process Engineering, Fifth Edition, authored by Phillip C. Wankat, is an indispensable guide for students, engineers, and professionals seeking to excel in modern separation processes and mass transfer. With its comprehensive coverage, realistic examples, and up-to-date content, this book empowers individuals to address complex societal problems and drive innovation in various industries.
