Infos

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)
