Book Description

ISBN-10: 0442234341 | ISBN-13: 978-0442234348 | Publication Date: January 31, 1992 | Edition: 1

This is a practical, hands-on approach to the design and operation of mixing systems, with the minimum physical theory or cumbersome detail. The volume provides basic understanding of the physical laws of mixing for both flow controlled and shear controlled applications. It details design constraints and troubleshoots agitation systems with reference to blending, solid suspension, heat transfer, mass transfer, extractions of solids and scale-up. The author leads the reader to optimized solutions through analysis of actual industrial cases, and discusses mechanical considerations of both static and rotating mixers.
