This reference overflows with an abundance of experimental techniques, simulation strategies, and practical applications useful in the control of pollutants generated by combustion processes in the metals, minerals, chemical, petrochemical, waste, incineration, paper, glass, and foods industries. The book assists engineers as they attempt to meet emerging environmental regulations and decrease combustion-induced pollutants in the modern industrial era. Brimming with more than 1300 references and 750 tables, figures, and illustrations, Industrial Combustion Pollution and Control reduces theory...

Deals with the design and applications of industrial burners. Giving an introduction to combustion and burner fundamentals, this work addresses major burner types and explores a range of topics including noise, burner controls, and physical modeling.

Industry relies heavily on the combustion process. The already high demand for energy, primarily from combustion, is expected to continue to rapidly increase. Yet, the information is scattered and incomplete, with very little attention paid to the overall combustion system. Designed for practicing engineers, Heat Transfer in Industrial Combustion eclipses the extant literature with an emphasis on the aspects of heat transfer that directly apply to industry.
From a practical point of view, the editor organizes relevant papers into a single, coherent resource. The book encompasses heat...

Although many books have been written on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and many written on combustion, most contain very limited covera ge of the combination of CFD and industrial combustion. Furthermore, m ost of these books are written at an advanced academic level, emphasiz e theory over practice, and provide little help to engineers who need to use CFD for combustion modeling. Computational Fluid Dynamics in In dustrial Combustion fills this gap in the literature. Focusing on topi cs of interest to the practicing engineer, it codifies the many releva nt books, papers, and reports...

Until now, anyone conducting industrial combustion tests had to either rely on old methods, go scurrying through the literature to find proven applicable methodologies, or hire top-shelf consultants such as those that work for cutting-edge companies like John Zink. Manufacturers can no longer take industrial combustion for granted. Air and noise pollution standards must be met, and today no one can afford the inefficient use of fuel.

Drawing on three decades of experience, Charles Baukal Jr. is not only aware of the best methods but is responsible for designing and...
