Need suggestions for a good ChemE refresher book
« on: July 13, 2009, 04:53:01 PM »
Hi,

I obtained my BS in ChemE about 7 years ago and ever since then have worked at a place that didn't really do much to help keep my ChemE skills in tact (the phrase "use it or lose it" comes to mind). I am currently seeking new employment opportunities in the industry, but am incredibly rusty on a lot of the essential concepts that I learned years ago that all Chemical Engineers really should know by definition.  I'm trying to get back up to speed on the fundamentals fast, but sifting through dozens of my old engineering books is proving to be quite the arduous task.

Question: Is there a good "all-in-one" book out there that someone can recommend as a good chemical engineering refresher?  I know all the information is still upstairs and it's just a matter of "thawing out the attic", but I'd like to do it as rapidly and efficiently as possible.  With the pile of books and notes I'm currently bogged down with, I may as well just repeat college  :)

Thanks in advance.

This handbook is a must-have for every chemical engineer: it covers all the topics, really. This is the latest edition. (2007)
