Solid/Liquid Separation: Scale-up of Industrial Equipment

by Richard Wakeman, Steve Tarleton

This book identifies test procedures used within sectors of the solid/liquid separation equipment industry, providing practical explanations for test data and their uses when faced with a new application to assess. With a strong practical emphasis, this book is ideal for use as a reference text for engineers concerned with applications evaluation of equipment or its scale-up. This book forms part of a five-volume set on all aspects of filtration and separation processes. One other volume is currently available from the Wakeman & Solid/Liquid Principles of Industrial Filtration.This book...•Provides guidance on how to tackle practical solid/liquid separation problems in an industrial setting•Shows how to plan, conduct and interpret experiments•Details test procedures, types of tests and how to interpret results when assessing a new application•Strong emphasis on current industrial practice•Provides a practical account which will help lead to the best use of appropriate equipment yielding optimal results
