Opis

This two volume work is intended for engineers and scientists concerned with the underlying principles of extraction processes as well as those engaged in research in the field. The work discusses the relevant physics and chemistry of the extraction operations as well as the engineering design and control of extraction equipment.The technique is widely used in a variety of industrial processes from the oil industry to food preparation.

This work presents an account of some of the fundamental aspects of liquid-liquid extraction technology together with an account of extraction processes in a number of important industries. Extraction techniques for specific applications are illustrated with reference to the hydrometallurgical, nuclear, pharmaceutical, and food industries.

Recenzje

The authors are well chosen, and the topics that are covered are appropriately in-depth and well written. The editorial process has obviously been extensive qnd thorough to make this book a coherent work. It will be an essential purchase for libraries and by researchers specialising in liquid-liquid extraction. It will be a valuable reference source for research students and for undergraduates . There is much to recommend it ... This book will be a valuable addition to the chemical engineering literature - providing both a reference source and a direction for future work in this field. For its size and coverage it also represents excellent value for money.
