Reseña del editor:

"Handbook of Petrochemicals and Processes" provides information on petrochemical processes. The entry for each petrochemical follows a standard format and details the chemical reactions involved in transforming raw materials such as olefins and aromatics into chemicals, plastics, synthetic fibres and synthetic rubbers. Full details of the competing processes, with emphasis on the chemical reactions involved and illustrated with flow diagrams, are given and their feedstock requirements, catalysts, and conversion rates are compared. For each product, data on its physical characteristics and properties, grades available, handling and transportation regulations by road, rail, sea and air are supplied together with details of regulatory bodies worldwide. In each entry consideration is also given to the latest developments brought about by increases in raw material costs, research to improve process efficiency, and environmental and legislative pressures. There is an analysis of the end-use breakdown and the economic factors affecting future developments and new applications. Major manufacturers worldwide and their plant locations are itemized.
