Compressor Technology Advances Beyond 2020 by Heinz P. Bloch and Hurlel Elliott. This book explains and describes in detail where, why, and how new approaches to compression technology are of value to all process plants. We refer to existing facilities contemplating upgrades as well as facilities that have merely reached cost estimating or pre-engineering and definition-of-scope status. This book describes fresh approaches to compression technology. Book gives practical solutions to real-world problems as well as recommendations for equipment purchasing and also contains an overview of thermodynamics and general compression machinery.
