Product Description
Chemical engineers and technicians often can't identify the source of equipment malfunctions because they don't understand how the equipment works. This easy-to-read guide offers explanations of the inner workings of equipment in petroleum refineries, chemical and pharmaceutical plants, fertilizer plants, and other continuous process facilities. Tips, worked out calculations, and simple process figures expedite troubleshooting of problems in heaters, turbines, vacuum systems, instrumentation, refrigeration systems, compressors, and much more.

Third Edition 
There is a good reason this book has been updated into a third edition. It is a great book; well written, easy to read, and a logical flow. Norman Lieberman has a habit of writing with a sort of folksy everyman approach to subjects that could be rather dry otherwise. He and Elizabeth have done an outstanding job on this book and I honestly treated it as fun reading with two or three chapters a night until time to turn off the light. His troubleshooting episodes are like detective stories. It makes me wish I had been a process engineer so I could have had the fun of working with Elizabeth and him.

Best Book For Technical Process Engineers
Very direct simulation , learning approach for the introduction of all most all problems in distillation for fresh process engineers. Thanks Lieberman's.

Excellent overview of process equipment, for everyone
I was refered to this book after reading a few chapters of his »Troubleshooting Process Operations« book, and it is excellent. He writes it for people working in the industry, for people who might work in the industry, and people who just want to know how things work. His sense of humor is on par with mine, as well as many of my fellow chemical engineers … so if you've spent any time working or dealing with engineers at all, his way of thinking and sense of humor will be well received. Anyways, his examples are pretty much all personal experience, and he does a good job of giving you the »basic« math governing many processes. His intent is not to give design equations, and he is VERY careful to make sure the reader is aware that they are NOT to be used to design equipment. He speaks, in my opinion, from a contractors point of view and is at times very critical of operating companies, management, other engineers, and SOME operators (he also rightfully gives MUCH praise to experienced veteran operators), so, if you work for an operating company, you might be a TAD offended, but, you'll live. Buy the book, well worth it.
