Description

Separation processes or processes that use physical, chemical, or electrical forces to isolate or concentrate selected constituents of a mixture are essential to the chemical, petroleum refining, and materials processing industries.

In this volume, an expert panel reviews the separation process needs of seven industries and identifies technologies that hold promise for meeting these needs, as well as key technologies that could enable separations. In addition, the book recommends criteria for the selection of separations research projects for the Department of Energy's Office of Industrial Technology.

Reviews

"From a scientific standpoint, grouping of the industries and showing the commonalties in separation technology is very helpful. The introduction and the initial chart gives a clear overall view of the where separation is needed in industry. The section Separation Technologies from page 89 to 93 delivers very useful and fundamental concepts."
--M. Hossein Hariri, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Chemical Engineering, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology
