Approaches in chemical engineering are determined by individual phenomena/processes, and each of these are studied individually. The phenomena that are treated in chemical engineering can be classified into two groups:(1) phenomena that are definite and can be expressed by formulas such as differential equations (2) phenomena that can be expressed only by probability terms. The focus of Chemical Engineering - A new Perspective is on ""information entropy"". The main themes covered are mixing, separation, turChemical engineeringEntropy (Information theory)Electronic books.Chemical engineering.Entropy (Information theory)660.01Ogawa Kohei542507MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457235803321Chemical engineering1956666UNINA
