E-Books →Mixing Process Technology A Guide to Industrial Applications

Industrial mixing processes often present multiple optimization challenges to producing desirable products. The resulting processes must be cost effective, "first-time right," and frequently, the designated most-effective technology for the global manufacture of specific products. Mixing Process Technology: A Guide to Industrial Applications shares the authors' extensive knowledge of mixing research and industrial practice. It features 20 industrial mixing chapters that are purposely light on mixing fundamentals, while heavy on practical mixing applications for practical process design and manufacturing. This text serves as an applied guide to industrial mixing for practitioners who want brief explanations of mixing concepts with real-life examples and software to help perform associated design calculations. This book also: Offers side-by-side discussion of mixing systems including impellers, static mixers and rotor-stators, as offered by several major manufacturers Describes the authors' innovative mixer designs to meet manufacturing needs Includes a chapter by a mixer manufacturing representative describing design, sizing, and expensing of industrial mixers Presents a chapter by a mixing equipment manufacturing leader that explains mechanical design considerations in clear terms Contains a chapter on emerging mixing technologies, including mixing via resonant acoustics and controlled cavitation Discusses computational fluid dynamics in mixing with multiple practical examples by a contributing author from a leading pharmaceutical company Includes Excel-based mixing worksheets throughout book examples and Excel-based input/output (mixit-io) interface hosted on the ✅Publisher's website This book is aimed at chemical and process engineers as well as students seeking to understand industrial mixing technology.
