{"product_id":"batch-processing-paperback-softback","title":"Batch Processing - Paperback \/ softback","description":"\u003cp\u003eAlthough batch processing has existed for a long time, designing these processes and unit operations has been considered an onerous task that required computational efforts. Design of these processes is made more complex because of the time dependent nature of the process and the allowable flexibility. More often than not, every unit encounters optimal control problems. Therefore, traditional design books have not covered batch processing in detail. Filling this void, \u003cb\u003eBatch Processing: Modeling and Design\u003c\/b\u003e describes various unit operations in batch and bio-processing as well as design methods for these units.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTopics include:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eBatch distillation operating modes and configurations \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBatch absorption operations based on the solubility difference\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBatch adsorption based on differential affinity of various soluble molecules to solid absorbents\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBatch chromatography for measuring a wide variety of thermodynamic, kinetic, and physico-chemical properties\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBatch crystallization where a phase is used to find the supersaturation at which point material crystallizes\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBatch drying that stresses the phase diagram of water to describe this operation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBatch filtration using a porous medium or screen to separate solids from liquids\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBatch centrifugation where centrifugal force is used for separation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBatch processes are widely used in pharmaceutical, food, and specialty chemicals where high value, low volume products are manufactured. Recent developments in bio-based manufacturing also favor batch processes because feed variations can be easily handled in batch processes. Further, the emerging area of nanomaterials manufacturing currently uses batch processes as they are low volume, high energy intensive processes. With examples, case studies, and more than 100 homework problems, this book describes the unit operations in batch and bioprocessing and gives students a thorough grounding in the numerical methods necessary to solve these design problems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45600551305454,"sku":"9781138076747","price":142.8,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9781138076747.jpg?v=1721473320","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/batch-processing-paperback-softback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
