Although there are many people around more competent to reply and respond;however i will suggest that list must include Petroleum Refinery Engineering by Nelson(Slightly older version still worth it),Petrolem processing Hanbook by Bland &Davidson&Chemical Pcocess Industries by Shrieve, Hazop and Hazan Probably by Kleitz(Apology if Spelled incorrect or Title referred incorrectly)[/i]
These titles came to my mind instantly excluding those however many other Important one's are there.
Best regards

It would help knowing what you are looking for. For example do you want a list of books covering core studies like control, separation technologies, reactors, safety etc or do you want to limit yourself to particular industries like pharma, petrochem or even management etc.
