Mixing in the Process Industries

Autor: A W Nienow , M F Edwards , N. Harnby

Número de Páginas: 429

This volume is a valuable reference work for the student and the practising engineer in the chemical, pharmaceutical, minerals, food, plastics, paper and metallurgical industries. The second edition of this successful text has been thoroughly rewritten and updated. Based on the long running post-experience course produced by the University of Bradford, in association with the Institution of Chemical Engineers, it covers all aspects of mixing, from fundamentals through to design procedures in single and multi-phase systems. Experts from both industry and academia have contributed to this work giving both a theoretical practical approach. It covers dry and wet powders, single and two-phase liquids, solid/liquid and gas/liquid systems. The range of mixers available for such diverse duties is dealt with, including tumbler mixers for powders, mechanically agitated vessels, in-line continuous mixers and jet mixers. Coverage is given of the range of mixing objectives, varying from achieving product uniformity to obtaining optimum conditions for mass transfer and chemical reactions. This volume is a valuable reference work for the student and the practising engineer in the chemical,...

Mixing for the Process Industries

Autor: R. Mcdonough

Número de Páginas: 266

This book is written primarily for an audience of engineers who design, specify, procure, update, and maintain mixers in the processing industries. It is an ap plication-oriented handbook to support the design and operation of mixers for liquids, liquids and solids, liquids and gases, and any combination thereof. This book does not address solids mixing. Mixing applications are identified as either flow controlling or shear rate controlling, and are addressed as such. Specific mixing applications and design parameters are presented for blending, solid suspension, heat transfer, mass transfer, dispersions, extractions, etc. Fundamentals of mixer design and operation, agitation applications spec trum, types and geometries of mixing impellers, etc. are presented in Chapter I, providing the basis for practical information presented in subsequent chap ters. Flow controlled mixing applications are discussed in Chapter 2. These in clude blending, solid suspension, heat transfer, dissolving of solids, and crys tallization. Optimization of mixer design is emphasized, with an eye to saving power and capital cost. Also discussed is the use of draft tube circulator mixers to optimize mixer...

Multiphase Flows for Process Industries

Autor: Vivek V. Ranade , Ranjeet P. Utikar

Número de Páginas: 859

Discover the cutting-edge in multiphase flows used in the process industries In Multiphase Flows for Process Industries: Fundamentals and Applications, a team of accomplished chemical engineers delivers an insightful and complete treatment of the state-of-the-art in commonly encountered multiphase flows in the process industries. After discussing the theoretical background, experimental methods, and computational methods applicable to multiphase flows, the authors explore specific examples from the process industries. The book covers a wide range of multiphase flows, including gas-solid fluidized beds and flows with phase change. It also provides direction on how to use current advances in the field to realize efficient and optimized processes. Filling the gap between theory and practice, this unique reference also includes: A thorough introduction to multiphase flows and the process industry Practical discussions of flow regimes, lower order models and correlations, and the chronological development of mathematical models for multiphase flows Comprehensive explorations of experimental methods for characterizing multiphase flows, including flow imaging and visualization In-depth...

Food Processing Handbook

Autor: James G. Brennan

Número de Páginas: 607

Focusing on the technology involved, this handbook describes the principles as well as the equipment used and the changes - physical, chemical, microbiological and organoleptic - that occur during food preservation. In doing so the text covers in detail such techniques as post-harvest handling, thermal processing, evaporation and dehydration, freezing, irradiation, high pressure processing, emerging technologies, baking, extrusion, frying and packaging. In addition current concerns about the safety of processed foods and control of food processes are addressed, as are the impact of processing on the environment and separation and conversion operations widely used in the food industry. Scientists and engineers involved in food manufacture, research and development in both industry and academia will benefit greatly from the contents as will students studying food related topics at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.

Energy Conservation in the Process Industries

Autor: W. F. Kenney

Número de Páginas: 354

Energy Conservation in the Process Industries provides insight into ways of identifying more important energy efficiency improvements. This book demonstrates how the principles can be employed to practical advantage. Organized into 12 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the energy situation and a background in thermodynamics. This text then describes a staged method to improved energy use to understand where the energy goes and how to calculate the value of losses. Other chapters consider improving facilities based on an understanding of the overall site energy system. This book discusses as well the fundamental process and equipment improvements. The final chapter deals with systematic and sophisticated design methods as well as provides some guidelines and checklists for energy conservation items. This book is a valuable resource for mechanical, lead process, and plant engineers involved in energy conservation. Process designers, plant managers, process researchers, and accountants will also find this book extremely useful.
