Page iii Preface We are pleased to present many chemical processes in an alphabetically organized, easy-to-read and understandable manner. This handbook covers up-to-date processing operations in the chemical industry. Each section is written by a world expert in that particular area in such a manner that it is easily understood and applied. Each professional practicing engineer or industrial chemist involved in chemical processing should have a copy of this book on his or her working shelf. Each of the processing articles contains information on plant design as well as significant chemical reactions. Wherever possible, shortcut methods of calculations are included, along with nomographic methods of solutions. In the front of the book are two convenient sections that will be very helpful to the reader: (1) conversion to and from SI units and (2) cost indexes that will enable the reader to update any cost information. As editor, I am grateful for all the help I have received from the great number of authors who have contributed to this book. I am also grateful to the huge number of readers who have written to me with suggestions of topics to be included. JOHN J. MCKETTA
