Book Description:

Molecular Thermodynamics of Fluid-Phase Equilibria presents a broad introduction to the thermodynamics of phase equilibria in chemical engineering design, especially in separation operations.

Synopsis:

A guide to interpreting, correlating, and predicting thermodynamic properties used in mixture-related phase-equilibrium calculations. Coverage includes empirical techniques and theory, with material on fundamentals of classical thermodynamics of phase equilibria, thermodynamic properties from volume.
