Introduction to Ceramics

Fabrication, Characterizations, and Applications

Beschreibung

The field of ceramics has applications in diverse fields including electronic engineering, electrical engineering, biochemical engineering, automobile engineering and defense sector. This textbook discusses ceramic raw materials, properties of ceramics, fabrication techniques of ceramics and testing of ceramics. It comprehensively discusses mechanical properties, thermal properties, optical properties, electrical properties and magnetic properties of ceramics. The text covers structural characteristics, properties and applications of advanced ceramic materials and examines their difference from the conventional ceramics. A separate chapter discusses testing methods of ceramics including testing of raw materials, testing of physical properties, testing of mechanical strength and testing of electrical properties in dept. This textbook begins by discussing ceramic raw materials, proceeds with conventional ceramics, continues with properties and fabrication techniques of ceramic materials, testing of ceramics and ends with covering advanced ceramics.

Dr. Chandan Das is Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati (IITG). He has received his PhD in Chemical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (IITKGP). He has guided, so far, 12 scholars for their doctoral degree, 32 M.Tech. and is guiding 5 more doctorate scholars. He has authored four (4) books and eleven (11) book chapters. He has three (3) patents in his credit. He has handled nine sponsored projects and seven consultancy projects up to now. He has visited Denmark, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Japan, Greece, and Athens for exchanging ideas, etc. His major research areas include (i) Membrane Based Separation Technology, (ii) Food Engineering, (iii) Biomedical, (iv) Material Science; (v) Corrosion, (vi) Wastewater Treatment and (vii) Simulation and Modelling. Being associated with various research works in the area of water and wastewater treatment, such as treatment of tannery wastewater using membrane separation technology, as well as removal of pollutants using micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration, Dr. Das has gained expertise in membrane separation technology for removing various pollutants from contaminated water and wastewater. His research activity encompasses both understanding of fundamental principles during filtration as well as the development of technology based on membrane separation. In particular, his research areas are modeling of microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, reverse osmosis, treatment of oily wastewater, tannery effluent using membrane-based processes. He has explored the detailed quantification of flux decline from fundamentals. As an offshoot of the major research, he has fabricated ceramic membranes using low cost precursors as sawdust. Catalyst is coated on the ceramic support for manufacturing catalytic membrane reactor. He is also working on decontamination of chromium laden aqueous effluent using Spirulina platensis. He is actively involved in the productions of high value-added products, namely, total phenolics, flavonoids, tocopherol, etc. from black rice as well as of 6-gingerol, vitamin C content, essential oil content from ginger of North East India. He is a Fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry, UK, and Fellow of Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers. He is subject coordinator for PMRF, Govt of India. He is coordinator for International joint master degree program (IMFST) with Gifu University, Japan. He is liaison from IIT Guwahati for Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) project, Japan. Dr. Sujoy Bose is an assistant manager at Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers, Kolkata India. Before, he was the Principal of Basantika Institute of Engineering & Technology (Polytechnic), West Bengal, India. He also worked as an assistant professor at the Department of Chemical Engineering, Durgapur Institute of Advanced Technology & Management, West Bengal, India. Previously, he was an assistant professor at National Institute of Technology, Calicut, India. He is graduated from Durgapur Institute of Advanced Technology & Management under West Bengal University of Technology. He has finished post-graduation from National Institute of Technology Durgapur. He has completed PhD from Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati. Dr. Bose has a long-term experience in the field of membrane technology. He is an expert in the area of developing ceramic membranes for different applications. Dr. Bose was able to make a breakthrough in highly-important area of ceramic membrane fabrication and economics and i.e., the use of sawdust as a novel cheap raw material for the manufacturing of ceramic membrane. His research interests also include material science, advanced ceramic and nanofluids etc. Dr. Bose has published journals in reputed peer-reviewed international journals like Materials Letters, Ceramics International, Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Research, Applied Catalysis A: General, Applied Thermal Engineering, International Journal of Ceramic Engineering and Science etc. He has published one book entitled "Advanced Ceramic Membranes and Applications" at CRC Press, Taylor & Francis Group (ISBN: 9781138055407). Dr. Bose is a Life Associate Member of the prestigious Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers (IIChE). He also has served as an executive committee member of IIChE Guwahati region chapter from 2013-2014. Major research fields: Field 1: Fabrication and Applications of Catalytic Membrane and Membrane Reactors Application: Sulfur recovery from sour gas during the production of petroleum products Field 2: Fabrication and Applications of Low-cost Ceramic Membranes Application: Usable as support membrane in UF, MF, NF and catalytic membranes Field 3: Fabrication and Applications of Light weight ceramic materials Application: Advanced armour system
