Description :

This book is based on the course notes from the introductory process control class at Strathclyde University in Glasgow, Scotland. This course is itself based on the IChemE model-curriculum for chemical engineers and covers the material that ALL chemical engineers are supposed know. The IChemE curriculum was drawn up by a team of industrialists and academics, led by Professor Jon Love, in response to a recognised need for chemical engineers to be taught a more industrially relevant course.

This book isn’t a traditional academic textbook in that there are no references anywhere in the text. The main reason for this is that the material has been gathered from many different sources after a working lifetime of teaching in the area and trying to identify an original source is impossible. I have included a bibliography for readers who wish to look further into the subject.

I hope students and teachers find this book useful. A major new part of the course at Strathclyde University (where I teach) has been the introduction of new process control learning software called PISim, and this is described in the appendix. PISim will be commercially released in late Autum 2017.
