This book is a hardcover textbook from McGrawHill and contains clear,concise text with the right balance of general knowledge, technical discussion and charts/diarams. From only a knowledge of basic chemistry to advanced degrees in Sciece and Engineering, this book satisfies all!

Rating: - Good, quick process overviewsThis handbook provides short (10 pages per process typically) descriptions of widely used chemical processes. The level of detail is appropriate for anyone with a technical backround. Rating: - HBORJA&USA.NETHandbook of Petroleum Refining PROCESSES. Robert A.
