Product Description
******Recently Published!****** Unit Operations of Chemical Engineering, 7th edition continues its lengthy, successful tradition of being one of McGraw-Hill's oldest texts in the Chemical Engineering Series. Since 1956, this text has been the most comprehensive of the introductory, undergraduate, chemical engineering titles available. Separate chapters are devoted to each of the principle unit operations, grouped into four sections: fluid mechanics, heat transfer, mass transfer and equilibrium stages, and operations involving particulate solids. Now in its seventh edition, the text still contains its balanced treatment of theory and engineering practice, with many practical, illustrative examples included. Almost 30% of the problems have been revised or are new, some of which cover modern topics such as food processing and biotechnology. Other unique topics of this text include diafiltration, adsorption and membrane operations.

Best book I know about Chemical Engineering. It provided me with the theoretical understanding of most of the technological problems through out my life as a responsible engineer working 25 years for an international food company.
A Chemical Engineering Classic September 7, 2006
Some prior reviewers are mistaken about this book being an annotation of Perry or of little value. The "unit operations" are the framework of chemical engineering. McCabe and Smith was the definitive work on unit operations when I was a student in the 1960's. Updated and with additional authors, it still is.
Excellent book March 2, 2006

Warren McCabe has written a unit operations book that is most adequately utilized for fluid mechanics. The separations sections are slightly abbreviated, and lack more refined details that might be found in a more specialized work. However, as a student in a separations course, I found myself referencing this book several times. The examples in the chapters were 'open-ended' enough to require real engineering problem-solving skills. Overall, an extremely well put-together text.

it is the best books i have ever read in my semester ofchemical engineering. the topic i like the most, is transportation offluids .this book is recommended by my professor. the matter of turbulent flow and laminar flow is just fantastic. thank you!
 This book is inadequte September 1, 1999

I feel that this book is inadequte for students and professionals alike. It does not explain well how systems act in real life situations, like most academia books
