网友对Petrochemicals in Nontechnical Language的评论
I have been working in the petrochemical industry as a financial advisor for 15 years. I often have to interact with chemical engineers in various aspects of my profession. This book has provided me a clear understanding of the complex petrochemical industry and its various processes.
When chemical engineers use terms,such as,sovent extraction, extrative distillation,adsorption,dehydrogenation,hydroformylation and the like,I am not only able to understand what is being said but I have often been able to respond effectively by asking pertinent questions in an area in which I am not an expert.
In order to wade smoothly through the book it is essential for the non-technical person to read and re-read the first chapter which provides all of the chemistry that you will need for the rest of the book. Even this first chapter has been written to make anyone understand the required chemistry.
Each of the subsequent chapters is devoted to different petrochemicals and lucidly explains the chemistry, the manufacturing processes,the uses of the chemicals being discussed, the handling of the chemical,etc.
Simplified diagrams of the manufacturing plant and various processes have helped me to quickly grasp the required essentials.
The chapters have been written in an easy to understand language with a touch of humor.
I would advise all technical and non-technical persons working for firms in the pertochemical industry to buy this book and keep it acessable at all times.
As someonce in the petrochemicals industry, I wanted to buy a comprehensive reference book so to start understanding the relations between feed stocks & prices and to look at the market in a wider perspective, etc.
There are rather limited number of available reference books in this topic, so I bought this book automatically. But, I almost become addicted to this book, reviewing it 10 mins everyday and still learn something new everday.
The book starts with a general overlook of the organic chemicals with reference to atomic structure & periodic table. Then, all the monomers, important hydrocarbons are explained in detail along with production methods and application areas.
Excellent book for learning about the basic layout of petrochemical facilities and how the units all tie together. One nice feature is the book deals with the economics and ways a specific stream can be diverted to other processes.
The book is received totally as expected. Thank you.
great reference book for process industry professionals.
