About the Book

Overview

George Stephanopoulos’ new book is an introductory text to the theory and practice of dynamic chemical and biological process engineering. It is intended to address the educational needs of a first undergraduate course in process dynamics and control, and to complement advanced undergraduate or graduate courses on the same subject. It is also useful for practicing engineers, who want to deepen their understanding in the foundational aspects of process dynamics and control.
