Process Engineering Problem Solving: Avoiding "The Problem Went Away, but it Came Back" Syndrome

Process Engineering Problem Solving is an excellent book for young engineers working in the process industries. Joe M Bonem, presents a five step problem solving and root cause analysis method that works on every problem you might encounter in the industry. He classifies problems by type - prime movers, plate processes, kinetically limited and unstable processes. Using the same fact finding and questioning techniques he teaches the reader how to get to the root cause and provide solutions to prevent problems from coming back. It is a book that I wish I would have had 20 years ago as a young process engineer.
