Reviews
Average rating 5
I now have a much greater appreciation of the physical and engineering effects at play when scaling processes up.
The timing split was also spot on – longer sections on regulation and less time on things less relevant to chemical engineering but important to know about.

It reintroduced concepts I haven't looked at in a long time and gave tools which I wouldn't have got from my own research.
