Description matérielle : 1 online resource
Note(s) : Substantially revising and updating the classic reference in the field, this handbook
offers a valuable overview and myriad details on current chemical processes, products,
and practices. No other source offers as much data on the chemistry, engineering,
economics, and infrastructure of the industry. The Handbook serves a spectrum of individuals,
from those who are directly involved in the chemical industry to others in related
industries and activities. It provides not only the underlying science and technology
for important industry sectors, but also broad coverage of critical supporting topics.
Industrial processes and products can be much enhanced through observing the tenets
and applying the methodologies found in chapters on Green Engineering and Chemistry
(specifically, biomass conversion), Practical Catalysis, and Environmental Measurements;
as well as expanded treatment of Safety, chemistry plant security, and Emergency Preparedness.
Understanding these factors allows them to be part of the total process and helps
achieve optimum results in, for example, process development, review, and modification.
Important topics in the energy field, namely nuclear, coal, natural gas, and petroleum,
are covered in individual chapters. Other new chapters include energy conversion,
energy storage, emerging nanoscience and technology. Updated sections include more
material on biomass conversion, as well as three chapters covering biotechnology topics,
namely, Industrial Biotechnology, Industrial Enzymes, and Industrial Production of
Therapeutic Proteins
