Editorial Reviews
Product Description
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 This was done because the term Unit Operations has been largely superseded by the term Separation Processes which better reflects the present modern nomenclature being used.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.

heat and mass transfer, 2008-09-29
book arrived quickly. was useful for both heat and mass transfer - not so great for fluid mechanics - and also for separation processes.

Amazing book. This book is all you need., 2007-09-28
This book is all you need for an undergraduate course in transport processes and/or separation processes. It is well illustrated and the problems are very demonstrative. Its a must have for the chemical engineering student.

Good Explainations, but still requires thought, 2007-01-10
I used this book as an undergrad in chemical engineering. It does a good job at walking you through the concepts without being watered down. The appendix is also great, as I used the physical data information listed in all my courses as a quick reference.

Good for separations techniques, 2006-03-02
The only review that I can give for the text would be for the separations sections, of which our class concentrated mainly on the distillation regime. Excellent structured pairing of chapter labeling with homework and example problems. Open-ended problems required a sufficient level of engineering skills.
