As a process design and piping technician, what books should one have? Data? Please share your thoughts!
On the forum, there is information on what beginners in processing and piping should know; many people have asked questions regarding this, and many others have provided suggestions and answers. By searching the forum, one can find a great deal of such information. I searched on the forum for books related to process engineering: 1. Take a closer look at “Principles of Chemical Engineering” – http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-27791-1-1.html 2. “Handbook of Chemical Process Design” – http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-6610-1-1.html 3. “Chemical Process Design” (Volumes 1 and 2) – http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-3365-1-1.html. For books related to installation work: 1. “Handbook of Process Pipeline Installation Design for Petrochemical Plants” (Volumes 1, 2, 3, 4) 2. “Handbook of Chemical Pipelines” (Volumes 1 and 2). Get familiar with the forum first; you’ll find that it has everything you might need! This post was last edited by wsts00100 on 2008-1-27 17:52.]
As a process design and piping specialist, Cai Erfu’s book on petrochemical process piping design is excellent and worth reading. Various specifications—especially those related to fire protection and other safety aspects—must be integrated throughout the process design. It’s not just about what’s in books; it’s also important to pay attention to summarizing the experiences and lessons of others.
The process installation design construction drawings are good; they’re very useful for piping work!
Di Lou has mentioned some good points, but I would also add the Building Fire Protection Design Code and the Petrochemical Fire Protection Design Code. Of course, it would be even better if the designer were a safety expert, as there are serious flaws in the design of some current chemical processing facilities regarding safe production. Encourage new people to speak up more
Process design manuals, pipeline and valve selection, pipeline stress calculation, and more – the more, the better. And it’s worth learning more about process calculations and such
Tower design, heat exchanger design, pump design – I’m not sure whether you work in oil refining or piping, but it’s probably similar in either case
On the 2nd floor, it’s clear that those working there are experienced designers. The questions raised by the original poster are likely ones that many people often think about; one might not even realize they have such thoughts until someone else brings them up, and then it might seem a bit strange. For those who are just starting out, guidance is indeed necessary. Once you’re at HaiChuan, you’ll have a direction to follow – there’s information and professional expertise available, it just depends on how you make use of them and how well you grasp them
Books 2 and 3 on manufacturing processes are actually the same book
It’s not about having many books; thorough reading is what matters. Seeking quantity is useless
At the very least, one must be familiar with the standards of this field
Thank you to the user on floor 9 for pointing this out. You are right; materials 2 and 3 are indeed the same book. Since I already had it, I didn’t download it again to check carefully. Additionally, the person who shared the materials didn’t write the full title of the book, which led me to misunderstand it. (Material 3 is titled “Chemical Process Design”; its blue cover made me confuse it with other books.) I would like to express my sincere apologies to the original poster. To find out the truth, I spent 34 wealth units to download the \"Chemical Process Design Handbook\" (3rd edition), volumes 1 and 2. If you need it, I can send it to you via email. I would like to clarify here that Reference 3 should be the *Chemical Process Design Manual* (2nd edition), in two volumes**, compiled by the Shanghai Pharmaceutical Design Institute of the Medical Administration Bureau and published by the Chemical Industry Press. Material 2 is more comprehensive; the material sharer has uploaded all versions of the \"Chemical Process Design Handbook\" (Volumes 1, 2, and 3).

Thank you to this brother; my email address is xl6025@126.com :)
It’s also a good idea to take a look at the Chemical Engineering Handbook
\"Handbook of Chemical Process Design\" (2nd edition) (Volumes 1 and 2)** Compiled by Shanghai Pharmaceutical Design Institute of the Medical Administration Bureau; published by Chemical Industry Press.
