Opis

Revised and expanded, Mass Transfer: Principles, Applications, and Separation Processes provides a complete theoretical introduction along with various biomedical, engineering, and environmental applications. This second edition features over 100 real-world worked examples, illustrative figures, and end-of-chapter exercises as well as a solutions manual. Avoiding an overly mathematical presentation of material, this text seeks to convey a sense of scale to students in order to emphasize the development of their abilities to make proper simplifying assumptions, to perform proper modeling, and to arrive at quick first estimates. It also includes numerous photographs of actual installations.
