Features: This book is a trial textbook, suitable for three-year vocational technical schools specializing in organic chemical engineering and petrochemical engineering, as well as for the in-service training of workers in chemical factories. It can also serve as a reference book for technical personnel engaged in chemical production and for students in organic chemical engineering programs at technical colleges. The textbook focuses on explaining the basic methods for producing essential organic raw materials such as ethylene, propylene, butadiene, petroleum aromatics (benzene, toluene, xylene), and ethylene from starting materials like petroleum, natural gas, and coal. Additionally, it introduces the properties, applications, production principles, process flows, influencing factors, and abnormal phenomena and handling methods in production, organized by raw material systems. The book also covers fundamental knowledge in chemical production, including startup, shutdown, reactor operations, basic calculations (conversion rate, yield, recovery, material balance, and heat balance), and pollution control and prevention in chemical production. Each chapter includes review questions. The entire book uses the metric system of units.
