Thermal Separation Technology is a key discipline for many industries
and lays the engineering foundations for the sustainable and economic
production of high-quality materials. This book provides fundamental
knowledge on this field and may be used both in university teaching and
in industrial research and development. Furthermore, it is intended to
support professional engineers in their daily efforts to improve plant
efficiency and reliability. Previous German editions of this book have
gained widespread recognition. This first English edition will now make
its content available to the international community of students and
professionals. In the first chapters of the book the fundamentals of
thermodynamics, heat and mass transfer, and multiphase flow are
addressed. Further chapters examine in depth the different unit
operations distillation and absorption, extraction, evaporation and
condensation, crystallization, adsorption and chromatography, and
drying, while the closing chapter provides valuable guidelines for a
conceptual process development.
