Description
In this volume, the third in a set specifically written for the industrial process and chemical engineer, the authors provide the detailed
information on filtration equipment and media which allows the reader to then consider the pre-treatment of suspensions, selection of
the most appropriate equipment for the task, data analysis and the subsequent design of the processes involved for particular separations.
The result is a comprehensive book which is designed to be used frequently and referred to regularly in order to achieve better industrial
separations.
Successful industrial-scale separation of solids from liquids requires not only a thorough understanding of the principles
involved, but also an appreciation of which equipment to use for best effect, and a start-to-finish plan for the various processes involved
in the operation. If these factors are all correct, then successful separations should result.
Audience:
Project, design and equipment engineers: plant, production and process engineers; contractors; consultants; operations managers; chemical engineers and academics in chemical engineering
