Very rigorous and thorough mathematical treatment to model control problems in chemical engineering, this ebook also provided very detailed data graphs for visualizing the problems. A must read for the upper year students or graduate students or any practising chemical engineers who want to understand this topic in depth. Thank you for kindly providing this ebook for us for free !!!
