Process Engineering Problem Solving: Avoiding "The Problem Went Away, but it Came Back" Syndrome (repost)

A rapid, effective problem-solving approach for your plant

In many modern plants, lots of time and money is spent addressing recurring problems. This guide gives you a structured, practical way to solve real-world plant processing problems, focusing on those that tend to be chronic or that require an engineering analysis. Written by an experienced professional who has felt, firsthand, the pressure to get complicated systems working quickly and correctly, Process Engineering Problem Solving:

Gives you a systematic, practical, five-step approach developed specifically to solve process engineering problems

Details a step-by-step method based on actual, in-plant experience rather than on abstract theory

Presents chemical engineering fundamentals from the perspective of the problem solver

Shows you how to use these chemical engineering fundamentals as a basis for developing technically correct working hypotheses

Includes real-world example problems to illustrate the concepts, techniques, and calculations

If you have a good understanding of the equipment and the specific technology involved, this systematic, methodical reasoning approach will help you quickly analyze and solve problems in your plant. It's a great reference for chemical engineers, industrial engineers, and industrial managers who are looking for techniques to improve their problem-solving skills within their organizations. It helps nonchemical engineers with some experience in the process industry and process operators with some understanding of unit operations to streamline process engineering problem solving.
