Chemical Engineering: Solutions to the Problems in Volume 1
by J. M. Coulson, J. F. Richardson, J. R. Backhurst, and J. H. Harker
This volume in the Coulson and Richardson series in chemical engineering contains full worked solutions to the problems posed in volume 1. Whilst the main volume contains illustrative worked examples throughout the text, this book contains answers to the more challenging questions posed at the end of each chapter of the main text. These questions are of both a standard and non-standard nature, and so will prove to be of interest to both academic staff teaching courses in this area and to the...
Although plastics are extremely successful commercially, they would never reach acceptable performance standards either in properties or processing without the incorporation of additives. With the inclusion of additives, plastics can be used in a variety of areas competing directly with other materials, but there are still many challenges to overcome. Some additives are severely restricted by legislation, others interfere with each other-in short their effectiveness varies with circumstan...
The book provides the most up-to-date information available on various biotechnological processes useful in the pulp and paper industry. The first edition was published in 2011, covering a specific biotechnological process or technique, discussing the advantages, limitations, and prospects of the most important and popular processes used in the industry. Many new developments have taken place in the last five years, warranting a second edition on this topic. The new edition contains about 35% ne...
Purification of Fermentation Products
Miniaturization has cost and time-saving advantages for numerous applications in chemistry, pharmacy, medicine and biotechnology. Additionally, microreaction technology offers new solutions for the automobile industry and environmental technology, e.g. fuel cells, or mobile sensor systems for on-the-spot analysis. Therefore, the 3rd International Conference on Microreaction Technology - IMRET 3 is an important forum for creating awareness of the wide variety of the new trends in this up-and-comi...
Theory and Practice of Hydrocarbon Generation within Space-Limited Source Rocks (Springer Geology)
by Defan Guan, Xuhui Xu, Zhiming Li, Lunju Zheng, Caiping Tan, and Yimin Yao
This book analyzes hydrocarbon generation and accumulation within space-limited source rocks. The authors draw conclusions based on the principles of basin formation, hydrocarbon generation and accumulation, coupled with the practice of terrigenous basins in eastern China. Hydrocarbon generation and expulsion have been quantitatively assessed in space-limited source rock systems. This book explores new hydrocarbon generation and expulsion models to reflect real geological situations more accurat...
Advances in Silicones and Silicone-Modified Materials (ACS Symposium, #1051)
Silicon, silica and silicones each have important but separate technological roles to play for mankind in this millennium. All three have the element silicon (Si) in common but they have unique and distinctive chemistries, properties and applications. This book describes recent advances in silicones and the advanced materials which are based on the siloxane bond (Si-O). We have seen tremendous developments in silicon-based materials over the past century and yet clearly there is still much pot...
Neben einer ausfuhrlichen Einfuhrung wird besonderes Gewicht auf die Anwendung der Methode gelegt. Der Einfluss der verschiedenen Parameter auf die ESR-Alterswerte wird durch Beispielrechnungen verdeutlicht. Die Beschreibung der Datierung von Quarz zeigt das enorme Potential dieser Altersbestimmungsmethode fur die gesamte Geologie auf. Im Anhang werden die mathematischen, physikalischen und messtechnischen Grundlagen erlautert. Durch die erstmalige, komplette Darstellung der Methode wird es dem...
Chemistry and Chemical Engineering for Sustainable Development
The world faces significant challenges as population and consumption continue to grow while nonrenewable fossil fuels and other raw materials are depleted at ever-increasing rates. This volume takes a technical approach that addresses these issues using green design and analysis. It brings together innovative research, new concepts, and novel developments in the application of new tools for chemical and materials engineers. It is an immensely research-oriented, comprehensive, and practical work...
A proper understanding of diffusion and mass transfer theory is critical for obtaining correct solutions to many transport problems. Diffusion and Mass Transfer presents a comprehensive summary of the theoretical aspects of diffusion and mass transfer and applies that theory to obtain detailed solutions for a large number of important problems. Particular attention is paid to various aspects of polymer behavior, including polymer diffusion, sorption in polymers, and volumetric behavior of polyme...

Der Theoretische Warmeverbrauch Einer Rohzuckerfabrik Fur Verdampfen, Erwarmen, Verkochen Und Krafterzeugung
by Hans Moller
Die vorliegende Studie beansprucht nicht, etwas Grundlegen- des oder ganzlich Neues zu bringen. Sie ist vielmehr nur der Ab- sicht entsprungen, auf Bekanntem aufbauend, dem Ingenieur oder Fabrikleiter eine allgemein gultige, nur das Wesentliche berucksichtigende, alle zufalligen Erscheinungen ausschlieBende und vor allem biJdliche Darstellung des theoretischen Dampf- verbrauchs der Rohzuckerfabriken in die Hand zu geben. Mit ihrer Hilfe soll er verschiedene Systeme der Warmewirtschaft unter Auss...
U-Th Series Nuclides in Aquatic Systems. Radioactivity in the Environment, Volume 13.
Annual Book of ASTM Standards, 1992 Vol. 03.02
Wiley Encyclopedia of Food Science and Technology, Second Edition, Volume 3
by Francis
Provides a comprehensive coverage of the basic phenomena. It contains twenty-five chapters which cover different aspects of boiling and condensation. First the specific topic or phenomenon is described, followed by a brief survey of previous work, a phenomenological model based on current understanding, and finally a set of recommended design equations or correlations. Detailed references are listed at the end of each chapter for further reading.
Green Chemistry Education (Green Chemical Processing)
The "greening" of industry processes, i.e. making them more sustainable, is a popular and often lucrative trend which has emerged over recent years. The 4th volume of Green Chemical Processing considers sustainable chemistry in the context of education and explores didactic approached. The American Chemical Society's 12 Principles of Green Chemistry are woven throughout this text as well as the series to which this book belongs.
