Sonochemistry can do lots of amazing things in many different fields – but how and where do you start with applying it? This thoroughly updated third edition of Practical Sonochemistry offers a ground-up introduction to the fundamentals applying power ultrasound to both lab and large-scale applications, methodically addressing the following questions: My laboratory does not have the equipment- what do I need? I have the equipment, but I have no idea how it works or how to use it- where do I start? I want to apply sonochemistry to a new reaction or processing method – what is the best approach? What types of sonochemistry equipment is available on the market and which is the best to choose? Can I scale up my reaction and if so, how do I do it, given that ultrasound is non-linear?Practical Sonochemistry: Applications of Power Ultrasound in Chemistry and Processing, Third Edition will be invaluable to anyone who wishes to use power ultrasound devices to synthesize or degrade chemical compounds. It conveys the increasing growth in applications and equipment to power ultrasound. The book written primarily for graduate students, postdoc researchers and academics in applied chemistry and chemical engineering, as well as technicians and operators in relevant industry.

Severe accidents in Sodium Fast Reactors: Safety Study Approach, Prevention and Mitigation by Design is a unique presentation of research work from the Sodium Fast Reactor Severe Accident team at CEA. Focusing on in-core and out-core severe accident phenomena, this book analyzes severe accident scenarios and mitigation, related calculations and tools, and key outcomes from important experimental programs. The book describes the state-of-the-art on severe accident research which will help to inform and direct further pre-conceptual Generation IV SFRs. Lessons learned from the pre-conceptual phase of the French ASTRID project are highlighted alongside different approaches to demonstrate robustness.To support the demonstration of concepts explored, a special section dedicated to calculation tools and their validation offers readers a unique set of tools to guide and inform their own research work. Readers will gain a deep understanding of methodologies to illustrate approaches as well as an overview of safety approaches from key countries based on the editor’s rich international collaboration.

Environmental Turbulence

Environmental Turbulence explains how to understand environmental and geophysical turbulence, both at a theoretical level and in engineering applications. Sections cover the effects of these new features on the fundamental flow dynamics in relatively simple domains. That is, how the turbulence statistics and structure are modified by the stabilizing or destabilizing effects of buoyancy and rotation is surveyed. Scalar transport is also described in detail. Flow in more complex domains is then described, focusing on vegetated and urban canopies, wind farms, air-sea interfaces, the upper ocean and clouds.Turbulence in environmental media is strongly modulated by buoyancy forces at all scales and by rotation at the largest scales, in contrast to canonical turbulent flows. It is rarely steady, which can give rise to non-equilibrium effects, and the domains such as wind farms or cities are often quite complex, leading to more intricate dynamics than in classic wall-bounded or free shear flows.

Developments in Yarn Spinning Technologies covers the many advances that have occurred over the last 15 years. Besides improving production, these developments are driven by sustainability and energy efficiency. Although an area such as ring spinning has been proven as the most popular technology in this area, there have been various developments that have superseded in recent times. Similarly, rotor spinning, as the second most popular spinning system, has gone through many changes. Newer technologies in worsted, woolen, and other natural fiber spinning systems are also covered, along with the challenges posed through methods such as the circularity theory.
