The rapid growth of literature on convective heat and mass transfer through porous media has brought both engineering and fundamental knowledge to a new state of completeness and depth. Additionally, several new questions of fundamental merit have arisen in several areas which bear direct relation to further advancement of basic knowledge and applications in this field. For example, the growth of fundamental heat transfer data and correlations for engineering use for saturated media has now reached the point where the relations for heat transfer coefficients and flow parameters are known well...

The Encyclopedia of Color Science and Technology provides an authoritative single source for understanding and applying the concepts of color to all fields of science and technology, including artistic and historical aspects of color.

Many topics are discussed in this timely reference, including an introduction to the science of color, and entries on the physics, chemistry and perception of color. Color is described as it relates to optical phenomena of color and continues on through colorants and materials used to modulate color and also to human vision of color. The measurement of...

As an instructor in various finishing courses, I have frequently made the statement over the years that "In the field of metal finishing there is very little black and white, just a great deal of grey. It is the purpose of the instructor to familiarize the student with the beacons that will guide him through this fog. " To a very considerable extent, a handbook such as this serves a similar purpose. It is also subject to similar limitations. Providing all the required information would result in a multi-volume encyclopedia rather than a usable handbook. In the pages that follow, you will...

This 34th volume examines subjects such as high-performance capillary electrophoresis; gas chromatography, matrix isolation, and infrared spectrometry; and statistical theories of peak overlap in chromatography.

This book provides a complete coverage of all aspects of the occurrence, toxicity and analysis of toxicants in the aqueous ecosystem. The aqueous ecosystem includes natural waters such as rivers, coastal waters and open seawater. It also includes sedimentary matter present in these waters, creatures (fish, crustacea) and plant life. Chapters dealing with toxicity measurement, control of pollution regulation and toxicity data systematically discuss metals, organometallic compounds and organic compounds. In addition, Chapters 4 and 5 deal with the effects of these types of toxicants in natural...

This volume covers the new methodological advances in NMR spectroscopy that have been developed since the publication of the first edition. These include: 'indirect detection' methods, particularly proton-detected carbon-13 spectra, which have profoundly increased NMR sensitivities; 3- and even higher- dimensional NMR methods which have further increased spectral resolving and correlating power; powerful new computer programs which assist in all phases of data analysis and ultimately make possible rigorous interpretations of complex 2D and higher- dimensional NMR spectra using molecular...

Nachdem die Bande 1 ("Die wissenschaftlichen Grundlagen") und 2 ("Trockner und Trocknungsverfahren") in dritter bzw. zweiter Auflage schon seit langerem verfugbar sind, schliet dieser dritte Band die Neubearbeitung dieses Standardwerkes ab. Damit konnte der besonders von Praktikern geauerte Wunsch erfullt werden, auch auf deren Probleme bezuglich der Trocknungsguter einzugehen. In diesem Band 3 werden die produktspezifischen Fragen der Trocknung behandelt. Fur die 10 wichtigsten Produktgruppen - beginnend bei der Landwirtschaft und endend bei der Lackverarbeitung - werden die...

This 3-volume set covers new research and applications on physical chemical for engineering and applied sciences. Volume 1 discusses the principles and technological implications of industrial chemistry and biochemical physics. Volume 2 presents some fascinating phenomena associated with the remarkable features of high performance polymers and also provides an update on applications of modern polymers. In Volume 3, the various categories of high performance materials and their composites are discussed, and the book also provides up-to-date synthesis details, properties, characterization, and...

This is the second volume in the 4-volume set Analysis and Control Methods in the Food Industy, edited by J-L. Multon. The book describes all the main analytical techniques used in the food industry. Physical and chemical principles underlying the techniques are reviewed, and the limitations of the techniques and their fields of application are defined. The scope is unusually wide, encompassing physical, chemical, engineering, biochemical, toxicologial, and sensory analysis techniques. It presents a wide variety of analytical methods, including those based on spetroscopy,...

The production of optically active intermediates and products as pure enantiomers is a topic of ever-increasing importance to the chemical industry. The economic incentives of improved cost efficiency and enhanced biological activity, together with new regulatory pressures have, in the last decade, brought about a dramatic increase in the number and scope of industrial processes. Chirality in Industry provides an overview of the production of optically active compounds on a large scale wholly from an industrial perspective. The volume includes example of each of the available process options,...

The 24th European Symposium on Computer Aided Process Engineering creates an international forum where scientific and industrial contributions of computer-aided techniques are presented with applications in process modeling and simulation, process synthesis and design, operation, and process optimization.

The organizers have broadened the boundaries of Process Systems Engineering by inviting contributions at different scales of modeling and demonstrating vertical and horizontal integration. Contributions range from applications at the molecular level to the strategic level of the...

This volume collects together the presentations at the Eighth International Conference on Foundations of Computer-Aided Process Design, FOCAPD-2014, an event that brings together researchers, educators, and practitioners to identify new challenges and opportunities for process and product design.

Poly-N-vinylamides are a new generation of water soluble carbon-chain polymers which have attracted growing interest over the last 20 years. The best known of the group is poly-N-vinylpyrrolidone (PVP), first discovered in Germany in 1939. This is the most significant member of the poly-N-vinylamide group and this text concentrates mainly on the correlation of its properties with other poly-N-vinylamides.

This volume presents the fundamentals of graph theory and then goes on to discuss specific chemical applications. Chapter 1 provides a historical setting for the current upsurge of interest in chemical graph theory. chapter 2 gives a full background of the basic ideas and mathematical formalism of graph theory and includes such chemically relevant notions as connectedness, graph matrix representations, metric properties, symmetry and operations on graphs. This is followed by a discussion on chemical nomenclature and the trends in its rationalization by using graph theory, which has important...
