Appropriate for one-year transport phenomena (also called transport processes) and separation processes course. First semester covers fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer; second semester covers separation process principles (includes unit operations).
The title of this Fourth Edition has been changed from Transport Processes and Unit Operations to Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles (Includes Unit Operations). This was done because the term Unit Operations has been largely superseded by the term Separation Processes which better reflects the present modern nomenclature being used. The main objectives and the format of the Fourth Edition remain the same. The sections on momentum transfer have been greatly expanded, especially in the sections on fluidized beds, flow meters, mixing, and non-Newtonian fluids. Material has been added to the chapter on mass transfer. The chapters on absorption, distillation, and liquid-liquid extraction have also been enlarged. More new material has been added to the sections on ion exchange and crystallization. The chapter on membrane separation processes has been greatly expanded especially for gas-membrane theory.
The comprehensive, unified, up-to-date guide to transport and separation processes.
° A more thorough coverage of momentum, heat, and mass transport processes and new coverage of separation process applications.
° Greatly expanded coverage of momentum transfer, including fluidized beds and non-Newtonian fluids.
° More detailed discussions of mass transfer, absorption, distillation, liquid-liquid extraction, and crystallization.

Allows a fundamental understanding of the theory of separation processes.
Exposes the student to the newer applications in these separation processes.
Gives the student knowledge in these newly expanding membrane processes.
I. TRANSPORT PROCESSES: MOMENTUM, HEAT, AND MASS.
II. SEPARATION PROCESS PRINCIPLES (INCLUDES UNIT OPERATIONS).
The comprehensive, unified, up-to-date guide to transport and separation processes
Today, chemical engineering professionals need a thorough understanding of momentum, heat, and mass transfer processes, as well as separation processes. Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles, Fourth Edition offers a unified and up-to-date treatment of all these topics. Thoroughly updated to reflect the field's latest methods and applications, it covers both fundamental principles and practical applications.
Part 1 covers the essential principles underlying transport processes: momentum transfer; steady-state and unsteady-state heat transfer; and mass transfer, including both unsteady-state and convective mass transfer. Part 2 covers key separation processes, including evaporation, drying, humidification, absorption, distillation, adsorption, ion exchange, extraction, leaching, crystallization, dialysis, gas membrane separation, reverse osmosis, filtration, ultrafiltration, microfiltration, settling, centrifugal separation, and more. This edition's extensive updates and enhancements include:
Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles, Fourth Edition also features more than 240 example problems and over 550 homework problems reflecting the field's current methods and applications.
