Dr Paul Stevenson is Senior Lecturer at the Department of Chemical and Materials Engineering, University of Auckland, New Zealand. Paul has a First Class Chemical Engineering degree, and a PhD from the University of Cambridge. Paul has worked in the field of foam and its industrial applications for eight years, and has published extensively on the fundamentals of foam science and the use of foams in flotation and fractionation.
Foam is a gas–liquid multiphase mixture that has several unique properties, such as high specific surface area and high expansion ratio. These properties can be harnessed in a wide variety of process applications and products such and froth flotation, fire–fighting and bread manufacture.
Divided into two sections, the chapters describe first the physical nature or behaviour of gas–liquid foam, and then process or product applications of foam. It includes coverage of:
- Foam morphology in two– and three– dimensions
- Foam drainage
- Changes in bubble size by coalescence and ripening
- Foam rheology
- Pneumatic and particle–stabilised foams
- Non aqueous foams, and Suprafroths
- Froth phase phenomena in mineral flotation and oil sand processing
- Foams for enhanced mass transfer in fermentation processes
- Foams in glass manufacturing, enhanced oil recovering, fire–fighting and consumer products
Linking the theory of foam science to industrial applications, Foam Engineering: Fundamentals and Applications summarises the state–of–the art of gas–liquid foam knowledge written by research leaders from academia and industry, and provides an accessible resource for those with an academic or practical interest in foam alike.
