The book brings alive key concepts forming the basis of chemical technology and presents a solid background for innovative process development. In all chapters, the processes described are accompanied by simplified flow schemes, encouraging students to think in terms of conceptual process designs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePetrochemistry: Petrochemical Processing, Hydrocarbon Technology and Green Engineering\u003c\/i\u003e introduces students to a variety of topics related to the petrochemical industry, hydrocarbon processing, fossil fuel resources, as well as fuels and chemicals conversion. The first chapter covers the fundamentals and principals for designing several of the processes in the book, including discussions on thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, reactor calculations, and industrial catalysts. The following chapters address recent advances in hydrocarbon technology, energy technology, and sources of hydrocarbons. The book then goes on to discuss the petrochemical industry based on four basic pillars, all derived from petroleum and natural gas: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProduction of lower alkenes; other sources of lower alkenes; petrochemicals from C\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e-C\u003csub\u003e3\u003c\/sub\u003e alkenes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProduction of BTX aromatics; chemicals from BTX aromatics\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eC\u003csub\u003e1\u003c\/sub\u003e technology\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiversification of petrochemicals \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe growing importance of sustainable technology, process intensification and addressing greenhouse gas emissions is reflected throughout the book.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWritten for advanced students working in the areas of petrochemistry, hydrocarbon technology, natural gas, energy materials and technologies, alternative fuels, and recycling technologies the book is also a valuable reference for industrial practitioners in the oil and gas industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martin Bajus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1119647762\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781119647768\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wiley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/06\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 6.70w x 0.30d","brand":"Martin Bajus","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43940922720511,"sku":"9781119647768","price":81.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_701f4451-64c9-4dd9-8bdb-b6048003ed84.jpg?v=1681449928","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/petrochemistry-martin-bajus-9781119647768","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
