Editorial Reviews

Review
A well-assembled compilation of information on a field of significance to many materials engineers.
Mark Schlesinger, JOM, April, 2006

Product Description
Handling of powders and bulk solids is a critical industrial technology, yet is very seldom seen on the curricula of chemistry or chemical engineering departments. Characterisation of Bulk Solids provides an understanding of the importance, techniques and industrial application of particulate materials characterisation. Readers will gain a better able to diagnose solids handling and processing problems in industry, and to deal with experts and equipment suppliers from an informed standpoint. Characterisation of Bulk Solids is directed at chemical engineers, scientists and technologists working with powdered materials in a broad spectrum of industries, such as agrochemicals, bulk and fine chemicals, good processing, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and plastics and polymers.

First Sentence:
Surveys have shown that the production of powdered material had an annual value in excess of $10 billion (Waldie 1980), whilst others have shown that an estimated 25-30% of the total output from the chemical industries was in the physical form of either powdered or agglomerated material (Oliver & Ford 1987; Stanley-Wood et al. 1993; Waldie 1989). Read the first page
