Short description With the newly revised fourth edition of Chemical and Engineering Thermodynamics, readers find a modern, applied approach to thermodynamics. The material is presented in sufficient detail that provides a solid understanding of the key principles in the field. And current information is included on environmental and safety issues and how chemical engineering principles are used in biotechnology, polymers, and solid-state-processing.
