Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1991, this volume responds to the major changes in the petrochemical industry over the previous decade due to increases in raw material costs, improvements in process efficiency and the increasing importance now being placed on environmental issues. The Handbook of Petrochemicals and Processes provides comprehensive, up to date information on 76 petrochemicals and their processes, giving details of the chemical reactions involved in transforming raw materials, such as olefins and aromatics, into chemicals, plastics and synthetic fibres. The competing processes for each product including the latest technical developments are described, with their feedstock requirements, catalysts and conversion rates compared. Many of the processes are illustrated with clear flow diagrams. The book is easy to use with the products arranged in alphabetical order. Within each chapter on the individual products there are details of the physical characteristics and properties; grades available; handling; transportation; health and safety aspects and lists of the major manufacturers and licensors The Handbook of Petrochemicals and Processes gathers together in one volume, all the commonly sought chemical information. It will prove an invaluable source of reference for industrial chemists, chemical engineers, and industry professionals, as well as librarians and information centres concerned with the petrochemical industry.

Book excerpt: This book provides a systematic and comprehensive introduction to various aspects of production of petrochemicals. Beginning with an introduction to petrochemicals, the book discusses the raw materials scenario with special reference to India. While discussing the profile of Indian petroleum and petrochemicals industries, the book emphasises on recent advances in the production of basic raw materials, namely, olefins, aromatics, intermediates and finished products like polymers, elastomers, polyurethane, synthetic fibres, and so on. Issues of environmental management, corrosion and selection of materials of construction in the petrochemical industries have also been dealt with. It has been written in consultation with numerous leading engineers and technologists working in the petroleum, petrochemical and R&D centres in related areas.
