Features: Introduction to Chemical Engineering Design focuses on the process design of chemical workshops (sections), systematically and comprehensively explaining the basic procedures, content, and methods of chemical engineering design, striving for practicality, reference value, and guidance. The book is divided into ten chapters. The preface briefly introduces the significance, role, characteristics, and development of chemical engineering design. Chapter 1 introduces the basic procedures and content of chemical engineering design; Chapter 2 explains the methods and steps for selecting production methods, process flow design, flow diagram drawing, and determining typical automatic control schemes; Chapter 3 covers the procedures and precautions for material balance calculations, heat balance calculations, equipment calculations, and selection; Chapter 4 discusses the types, principles, and methods of workshop layout design; Chapter 5 provides a detailed introduction to the relevant knowledge and regulations of chemical pipeline design; Chapter 6 explains the relationship between process design and non-process design and the conditions provided; Chapter 7 introduces the writing procedures and content of design specifications and budget books; Chapter 8 introduces the application of computers in chemical engineering design from aspects such as property data retrieval, simulation calculations, equipment calculations, and AutoCAD. Chapter 9 presents three case studies: the process design of a butadiene rubber polymerization workshop, the process design of an acrylonitrile refining tower, and the process design of a synthetic ammonia plant. Additionally, targeted illustrations of common instruments, chemical equipment, chemical pipelines, and fittings are included at the end of the book as needed. Its main features are: introducing the new design standards and regulations currently used in the petrochemical industry in Chapters 2, 3, 4, and 5; and incorporating the content of computer-aided process flow diagram and assembly drawing design in the case studies to make it more practical and comprehensive. This book can be used as a textbook for vocational chemical engineering process majors and also serves as a reference for chemical engineering technicians engaged in production.
