This book comes at a critical time when many nations are shifting to an increasingly higher percentage of
natural gas use within their range of energy sources. Giving the reader a comprehensive insight into the
natural gas transmission and processing industry, this book will prove invaluable in orienting the
newcomer and extending the scope of understanding of the veteran.
Lorenzo Micucci, Manager of Technology and Markets Research, Siirtec Nigi, Italy.

This comprehensive reference book covers all technical aspects of natural gas transmission and
processing in a very practical manner. Contrary to other books, it is pleasant to read, and the
information, always accurate, can be found easily. Very importantly, it also describes emerging trends
and helps to understand what the future of gas processing could look like.

Alexandre Terrigeol, Sales and Technical Manager, CECA Molecular Sieves, France.

A very useful handbook that covers topics that others have missed. Highly recommended for any
professionals who are involved with the natural gas transmission and processing industry. The authors
are experts in their field and provide high quality coverage of subjects that are current and of practical
use to long time professionals as well as newcomers. The material is quite comprehensive and covers all
aspects of natural gas making this a need to have reference book.

Dr. Thomas H. Wines, Director of Applications Development, Pall Corporation, USA.

The reader will find the information on gas handling from the wellhead to the consumer to not only be
informative, but be presented with an eye toward practical applications and with an operations
understanding. The comprehensive coverage of the subjects makes it a useful guide to those new to the
natural gas transmission and processing industry and a ready reference for more experienced engineers.

Michael J. Mitariten, Senior Director, Natural Gas and Biogas Separations, Air Liquide, USA.

This excellent handbook gives a comprehensive insight into the complete natural gas transmission and
processing industry. As such, it is the perfect companion for young process engineering graduates just
starting to learn the business, as well as for more experienced engineers looking for a desktop reference
book. I enjoyed especially the fine balance the authors found between the introduction of each process
step, the description of the most important process design principles (including safety and
environmental), and the so important (and sometimes forgotten) operational aspects of efficiently and
safely running the plant. I especially liked the chapter on “Real-Time Optimization of Gas Processing
Plants” as it covers the practical requirements of advanced process control, real time optimization, and
the underlying process models and it rounds it all up with a detailed description of a successful real-life
example.
Dr. Michael Brodkorb, EMEA Software Consulting Manager, Honeywell Process Solutions, Spain.

This comprehensive book provides in-depth coverage of all technical aspects of natural gas transmission
and processing, beyond those addressed in other books. This is a “must addition” to library of anyone
working in the midstream and downstream sectors of natural gas utilization to achieve higher career
goals. I commend the authors' continuous effort to make it an excellent source book for all professionals,
engineers, and scientists in the natural gas industry.

Management, University of Oklahoma, USA.
