Introduction to Chemical Product Design (Green Chemistry and Chemical Engineering)

Whereas chemical engineering has traditionally focused on the design of chemical processes to produce commodity chemicals, there has been increasing attention in the discipline on the engineering of high-performance chemical products.Chemical product design principles are now being incorporated into university curricula to ensure new chemical engineers can help meet industry demands.Bridging the gap between teaching and practice, Introduction to Chemical Product Design provides a comprehensive overview of chemical product design, explains the role of chemical engineers in different stages of chemical product design, and covers stepwise approaches used to design different types of chemical products. • Includes chemical product design steps with examples and case studies. • Features mini projects to illustrate the connection between product design stages. • Focuses on the most common types of problems that engineers encounter in their career. • Offers solved examples and exercise problem
