Trends and Developments
Ed. by E. Calan and Eva Del Valle

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Unlike extensive major reference works or handbooks, Chemical Engineering: Trends and Developments provides readers with a ready reference to latest techniques in selected areas of chemical engineering where research is and will be focused in the future. These areas are: bioseparations; particle science and design; nanotechnology; and reaction engineering. The aim of the book is to provide academic and R&D researchers with an overview of the main areas of technical development and how these techniques can be applied. Each chapter focuses on a technique, plus a selection of applications or examples of where the technique could be applied.

Rezensionen

" a good resource for researchers, scientists, and engineers would also serve well as a text for graduate students " ( Materials and Manufacturing Processes , September/October 2006) " a book like this is refreshing because it allows an interested reader to take a casual stroll on the beach and collect shells hopefully picking up a few that spark innovation." ( The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering , October 2006)
