Part I places particular emphasis on concise and sound applications of thermophysics, thermochemistry, and the first law of thermodynamics. The book also dis cusses recovery or stripping of adsorbed gases; calcu lating material balances; calculating mean heat capacities of gases; deriving consistent vapor-pres sure data; predicting the pressure and composition of the vapor in equilibrium w i t h a solution; ex pressing vapor content of a gas, etc. 1943 452 Pages $5.00
PART II
THERMODYNAMICS Part II of C H E M I C A L PROCESS PRINCIPLES develops the fundamental principles of thermodynamics w i t h particular emphasis on generalized methods used for estimating thermodynamic properties from a mini mum of experimental data. The application of these principles to problems dealing w i t h the compression and expansion of fluids, power generation, and re frigeration is also discussed. N o attempt is made to treat the mechanical or equipment problems ot these operations. 1947 412 Pages $5.00
PART I I I
KINETICS AND CATALYSIS Part III furnishes a comprehensive treatment of chemical kinetics applied to reactor design for nearly all types of reactions — h o m o g e n e o u s , heterogeneous, and cata lytic. This treatment is in agreement w i t h the . thermodynamics of absolute reaction rate and w i t h modern theories of adsorption. Temperature gradi ents and transient phenomena are thoroughly cov ered. Particular attention is given to the interpre tation of pilot plant data and their application to design problems. Economic considerations are em phasized and problems are included on establishing optimum conditions of operation w i t h respect to pressure, temperature, initial composition, space velocity, recycling, and multistage operation. 1947 348 Pages $4.50 FREE EXAMINATION
