Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles

by Christie J. Geankoplis

Appropriate for one-year transport phenomena (also called transport processes) and separation processes course. First semester covers fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer; second semester covers separation process principles (includes unit operations). The title of this Fourth Edition has been changed from Transport Processes and Unit Operations to Transport Processes and Separation Process Principles (Includes Unit Operations). This was done because the term Unit Operations has been largely superseded by the term Separation Processes which better reflects the present modern nomenclature being used. The main objectives and the format of the Fourth Edition remain the same. The sections on momentum transfer have been greatly expanded, especially in the sections on fluidized beds, flow meters, mixing, and non-Newtonian fluids. Material has been added to the chapter on mass transfer. The chapters on absorption, distillation, and liquid-liquid extraction have also been enlarged. More new material has been added to the sections on ion exchange and crystallization. The chapter on membrane separation processes has been greatly expanded especially for gas-membrane theory.

Holy book of engineers, in Geankoplis we trust!

[Abdulaziz Ali]

It is one of the best books on chemical engineering.
I know this book very well, it was my favorte book in BSc, MSc and Phd. dgree. I can strongly say that every chemical engineer or chemical engineering student should have this book. Keep it as the best reference in unit operations. Author Giancoples added a clear explanation of the means of transport: heat transfer and mass transfer. In addition, in his book he talked about fluid mechanics in detail.
I can say that this is a very valuable book that you should never miss.

Ridiculous amount of typos throughout the book. Even present in examples and problem solutions. The book is too dense and difficult to read without them, but the typos have caused me and several other much headaches. Buy the 4th edition instead

The best book ever

واسه‌ ایرانی‌ها میگم:
این کتاب در حقیقت یه کتاب جامعه که شامل دروس انتقال حرارت، مکانیک سیالات، انتقال جرم، و عملیات واحد میشه. نویسنده سعی کرده مطالب رو مختصر و مفید بگه و تقریباً هم موفق شده. همچنین کتابش رو صنعتی هم کرده و مطالب کاربردی-صنعتی هم کم و بیش توش هست (البته برخی مطالب پیشرفته متناسب با دوره ارشد هم توش هست). صرفا هم در حیطه مهندسی شیمی نوشته، یعنی انتظار نداشته باشین مطالب مکانیک سیالات که گفته، مثل استریتر بگه بهتون. همون قدر گفته که مهندسی شیمی رو پوشش بده.
ولی مشکل تو مثالای حل شدش هست و تقریباً مثالای متنش در مقایسه با کتابای هم رده‌اش خیلی آسون هستن ولی در عین راحتی، خیلی کامل حل شدن. در هر صورت، تمرین‌های آخر فصلش خیلی عالین و دستمایه طرح سوال خیلی از اساتید شده.
این کتاب هم رده کتابای مک کیب، و کلسون ریچاردسون هست. البته کتاب مک کیب که میدونین بسیار گند تشریف داره، ولی کتاب ریچاردسون بسیار تمیز و عالی هست و مخصوصا جامع و مثالای حل شدش هم بسیار زیبا هستن.
در آخر هم میگم که این کتاب کاملا از کتاب مسخرۀ مک کیب بهتره و کاملاً هم میتونه جایگزین اون بشه. یعنی قبلا شما تریبال و مک کیب رو میخوندین، الان برین تریبال و این رو بخونین.

Mike N likes to say that Geankoplis "glosses over the math" (and then to follow up with a comment on how much he hates math). But I've yet to find that true and just wish my used copy didn't have cigarette ashes tucked between the pages.

Nice book

[Gayuh Almira Altifa]

Ini disarankan bagi pembaca jurusan teknik kimia haha. Abisan hampir setiap mata kuliah selalu ambil dari buku ini.

[Dicky]

im interest about this book

[Alqahtani11]

Ok

[Chandra Kant]

It is a good book for mass transfer.
