Gas Purification, Fifth Edition

This massively updated and expanded fifth edition is the most complete, authoritative engineering treatment of the dehydration and gas purification processes used in industry today. Of great value to design and operations engineers, it gives practical process and equipment design descriptions, basic data, plant performance results, and other detailed information on gas purification processes and hardware. This latest edition incorporates all significant advances in the field since 1985. You will find major new chapters on the rapidly expanding technologies of nitrogen oxide control, with discussions of regulatory requirements and available processes; absorption in physical solvents, covering single component and mixed solvent systems; and membrane permeation, with emphasis on the gas purification applications of membrane units. In addition, new sections cover areas of strong current interest, particularly liquid hydrocarbon treating, Claus plant tail gas treating, thermal oxidation of volatile organic compounds, and sulfur scavenging processes.This volume brings you expanded coverage of alkanolamines for hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide removal, the removal and use of ammonia in gas purification, the use of alkaline salt solutions for acid gas removal, and the use of water to absorb gas impurities. The basic technologies and all significant advances in the following areas are thoroughly described: sulfur dioxide removal and recovery processes, processes for converting hydrogen sulfide to sulfur, liquid phase oxidation processes for hydrogen sulfide removal, the absorption of water vapor by dehydrating solutions, gas dehydration and purification by adsorption, and the catalytic and thermal conversion of gas impurities.

I have been wanting to buy this book (which is a classic on the subject) for some time but held off as it worked out too expensive when adding mail charges to Australia (it weighs 5 lbs!). On re-checking I found 's current price very reasonable and jumped at it. I was delighted with the packaging and quick delivery.

This is a must-have reference for anyone in the gas purification / treating field. It covers a broad range of technologies for many gas treating applications.

Very interesting book. Deals its themes as it should be.A classical.For consulting only.Thanks for let'em us

Excellent bookI found everything I needed to perform my work on treatment of flue gas

This book was very helpful. As an engineer at a zeolite manufacturing company, the book was very informative. The book enabled me to have a greater understanding of the processes in which our products are used.

A comprehensive book on the subject. This is an earlier edition,
