Synopsis

One of the few petroleum refining textbooks for academic use, this updated edition provides broad and rigorous coverage of all the process technologies of the industry along with discussions of crude oil properties, product specifications, capital cost curves, environmental regulation, and process operations. The book contains a review and edit of the solution manual with new homework problems and relevant interface material that adds to its relevancy and broadens its audience without distracting from the technical aspects.
