About Advances In Industrial Mixing: A Companion To The
Product Description Advances in Industrial Mixing is a companion volume and update to the Handbook of Industrial Mixing. The second volume fills in gaps for a number of industries that were not covered in the first edition. Significant changes in five of the fundamental areas are covered in entirely updated or new chapters. The original text is provided as a searchable pdf file on the accompanying USB. This book explains industrial mixers and mixing problems clearly and concisely. Gives practical insights by the top professionals in the field, combining industrial design standards with fundamental insight. Details applications in 14 key industries. Six of these are new since the first edition. Provides the professional with information he/she did not receive in school. Five completely rewritten chapters on mixing fundamentals where significant advances have happened since the first edition and seven concise update chapters which summarize critical technical information. Review “Advances in Industrial Mixing” is an updated version of the “Handbook of Industrial Mixing” (1). The unchanged text of the “Handbook of Industrial Mixing” is provided electronically (on the accompanying DVD), and only the new or substantially revised contents are provided in the hard copy.....In summary, “Advances in Industrial Mixing” provides an expansion to the “Handbook of Industrial Mixing” (1), including new developments in both experimental and numerical approaches and new methods developed based on more extensive data for assessing mixing quality. With regards to the issues raised in industry, a wide range of new materials are added in this volume, such as health and safety, and mixing in water, food and the pharmaceutical industry. (Johnson Matthey Technol. Rev., 2017, 61:4) From the Inside Flap Includes 5 completely rewritten and updated fundamentals chapters and specialized chapters for 6 new industries – all by leading professionals in the fieldWhile process objectives are critical to the successful manufacturing of a product, if the mixing scale-up fails to produce the required results, the costs of manufacturing can increase significantly. Although there are several industrial operations in which mixing requirements are readily scaled up from established correlations, many operations require a more thorough evaluation. This comprehensive handbook provides practical insights from the leading professionals in the field and presents the latest methods for recognizing these more complex operations. The Advances Volume is a companion to the Handbook of Industrial Mixing. It reworks areas that have seen significant progress since the first edition and includes: Brand new chapters for 6 areas of industrial application: pharmaceutical validation, crystallization, water treatment, commissioning of mixing equipment, and safety Additional sections or examples for 5 chapters from the first edition including: magnetic drives, micromixers, vessel head volume calculations, additional information on heat transfer, and application of the Bourne protocol to reactor design Concise but critical technical updates for mixing in pipelines, turbulence, and CFD 5 completely new fundamentals chapters covering: mean age distrbution, rheology and complex fluids, flow patterns, viscous mixing, solid-liquid mixing A full technical definition of mixing The advances volume will be a welcome addition to the Handbook of Industrial Mixing for the practicing engineer who needs to both identify and solve mixing problems. This book also provides concise discussions on theoretical background and uses many illustrative examples when covering applications. It includes a DVD with a searchable pdf copy of the first edition, twenty tutorials on mixing, and a collection of video clips and animations of mixing processes, many of which are new for this edition.
