Short description
Aspen Plus is on of the most popular process simulation software programs used industrially and academically. This book fills an educational gap by providing step-by-step instruction covering its use. The structure of the book is unique in that it emulates a lecture /workshop classroom environment. The enclosed CD contains solutions, both in Aspen Plus and text formats, to examples embedded in the text as well as to all the workshops. There are also notes at the end of each chapter specifically design to aid learners.
