Process Engineering for a Small Planet How to Reuse, Re-Purpose, and Retrofit Existing Process Equipment

We live on a small planet with limited air, water, and mineral resources and learn how to get by with what we have. Process engineers and operators do not need to look to exotic technology to make a contribution to combating the environmental issues. This easy-to-follow handbook shows how to operate and retrofit process facilities to re-use existing process equipment to save energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, as well as invoking other sound environmental measures. Process Engineering for a Small Plant offers viable global solutions to green technology.
