Inhaltsangabe

This two–volume alphabetically organized encyclopedia is a compendium of the gases, liquids, and solids phase separation processes used industrially and in the laboratory. Based on the Kirk–Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, the authoritative reviews, written by experts in the field, include both the technology and the underlying science of separations. Practical advice concerning choice of separation process is also given. Energy considerations and the role of economics in undertaking separations are discussed. Close to 60% of the material is reprinted; 30 percent is substantially revised or completely new.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Separations technologies on an industrial scale comprise over 50 percent of the capital and operating costs in industry. This two–volume encyclopedia, based on the authoritative Kirk–Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, provides A to Z coverage of the various techniques that can be used to effect separations of gases, liquids, and solids for the purification of new materials, feedstocks, process streams, or finished products. Written by experts in the field, entries provide valuable information on both the technology and the underlying science of separations. The Encyclopedia of Separation Technology:
∗ Brings together all of the authoritative articles on separation technology from the main Kirk–Othmer Encyclopedia into a thoroughly updated, easily accessible two–volume set
∗ Contains over 30 percent new and updated material
∗ Includes five new specially commissioned articles on key topics––such as bioseparations, contactors for separations processes, and high purity gases––not addressed in detail in the Kirk–Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology

Complete with extensive cross–referencing and a comprehensive list of contributors and their affiliations, the Encyclopedia of Separation Technology is an ideal reference for researchers and other professionals working in the chemical process industries.
