25th European Symposium on Computer-Aided Process Engineering contains the papers presented at the 12th Process Systems Engineering (PSE) and 25th European Society of Computer Aided Process Engineering (ESCAPE) Joint Event held in Copenhagen, Denmark, 31 May - 4 June 2015.

The purpose of these series is to bring together the international community of researchers and engineers who are interested in computing-based methods in process engineering. This conference highlights the contributions of the PSE/CAPE community towards the sustainability of modern society.

Introduction to Chemicals from Biomass, Second Edition presents an overview of the use of biorenewable resources in the 21st century for the manufacture of chemical products, materials and energy. The book demonstrates that biomass is essentially a rich mixture of chemicals and materials and, as such, has a tremendous potential as feedstock for making a wide range of chemicals and materials with applications in industries from pharmaceuticals to furniture.

Completely revised and updated to reflect recent developments, this new edition begins with an introduction to the...

Lithium-Ion Batteries: Fundamentals and Applications offers a comprehensive treatment of the principles, background, design, production, and use of lithium-ion batteries. Based on a solid foundation of long-term research work, this authoritative monograph:

• Introduces the underlying theory and history of lithium-ion batteries
• Describes the key components of lithium-ion batteries, including negative and positive electrode materials, electrolytes, and separators
• Discusses electronic conductive agents, binders, solvents for slurry preparation, positive...

The book provides a systematic and profound account of scientific challenges in fuel cell research. The introductory chapters bring readers up to date on the urgency and implications of the global energy challenge, the prospects of electrochemical energy conversion technologies, and the thermodynamic and electrochemical principles underlying the operation of polymer electrolyte fuel cells. The book then presents the scientific challenges in fuel cell research as a systematic account of distinct components, length scales, physicochemical processes, and scientific disciplines.

The manner in which time is captured forms the foundation for synthesis, design, and optimization in batch chemical plants. However, there are still serious challenges with handling time in batch plants.

Most techniques tend to assume either a fixed time dimension or adopt time average models to tame the time dimension, thereby simplifying the resultant mathematical models. A direct consequence of this simplification is a suboptimal process. Synthesis, Design, and Resource Optimization in Batch Chemical Plants aims to close this scientific gap.

Presenting state-of-the art models for...

Das Handbuch der gefahrlichen Guter ist ein Standardwerk fur den Transport von Gefahrgutern. Es gibt Informationen zu nationalen und internationalen Transportvorschriften und zu Notfallmanahmen bei Unfallen sowie Hinweise fur die arztliche Erstbehandlung von Personen. Zusatzlich zu den neu aufgenommenen Gefahrstoffen sind jetzt auch die meisten der bisher noch nicht erfassten Kampfstoffe, die vor allem als Altlasten Bedeutung erlangt haben, im Band 6/2 aufgenommen.
