Ludwig's Applied Process Design For Chemical And Petrochemical Plants Incorporating Process Safety Incidents 1A

As business processes are crucial success factors for companies, software-based Business Process Management (BPM) is becoming more and more important. In this area SAP, the market leader for enterprise application software, has already gathered substantial experience. For the characterization, modeling and especially the optimization of business processes, SAP’s consultants use their own BPM approach. In addition to their considerable methodological know-how, the consultants’ profound knowledge of the industries facilitates the focus on core and business-critical processes.

This book consists essentially of a collection of papers that were contributed to a national meeting held in Houston, Texas, in 1983. The papers contained herein cover a wide range of electro­ chemical engineering topics and should serve as useful starting points in the design of electrochemical cells. The editor would like to thank the authors for their contribu­ tions and patience and the typists, Mrs. Susan 'Firth and Mrs. Jeri Saulsbury, for their efforts. Also, the editor would like to thank Mr. T. Nguyen and Ms. M. A. Nictrolson for their help in preparing the index of this book. R. E.
