More Information
Summary:Process intensification (PI) leads to a substantially smaller, cleaner, safer and more energy efficient process technology. PI is a hot topic in chemical and process engineering and is now reaching a maturity that is seeing PI concepts applied to a wide range of processes and technologies. This is the first book to provide a practical working guide to understanding PI and developing successful solutions and applications. The book focuses on safety, energy and environmental issues, giving guidance on how to incorporate PI in plant design and operation safely, efficiently and effectively. It provides up-to-date access to the best current information on PI, both through the world-class experience of the authors and by pinpointing other significant sources of data, equipment and expertise.
