I really like how they focused on Hysys which is what is mostly used in industry. This is a great book for undergrads and grad taking designs in chemical engineering.

It's a very helpful book for getting a real and useful information about the common tasks and activities in the engineering design

Pretty good book. The condition of the book was great. There are parts of the context that I may disregard and find elsewhere, but it's easy to read and informative. One problem I've run into so far is that there are a few examples where the values used are not referenced where they came from or what they are (not even units) and it may take awhile to figure out.

This book contains brief information, that is easy to read, understand and keep in mind. My main interest was at the economic section of the textbook. And I found there some information from Perry and other references, but in this case it contained most concise and useful information, with lot of examples how to use formulas and calculations, performed in the text.

Unfortunately, CD was broken, but readable. There are else two of the textbook chapters on the CD, and also two programs, and videoguide how to use these programs. I found CAPCOST program very useful for basic estimation of the process economics.

The only upsetting for me thing was that almost all of the processes, that are widely described in the textbook, are organic or petroleum processes, and no examples of inorganic processes.

But the book is great!

When I receive this item, the included CD was cracked. This was very upsetting.
