Product Description: Since 1952, the primary election in a small, not very diverse New England state has had a disproportionate impact on the U.S. presidential nomination process and the ensuing general election. Although just a handful of delegates are at stake, the New Hampshire primary has become a massive media event and a reasonably reliable predictor of a campaign's ultimate success or failure...read more

A very wide range of catalytic conversions find industrial use in organic process chemistry. The scale of the ope­ rations varies enormously from very high volume pro­ cesses to specialty chemical preparations. Many of these processes are functional group conversions or class reac­ tions, and the more important of these will receive detailed treatment in specific chapters throughout this series. Nevertheless, the scope is very broad, and it is all too easy for the non-specialist to become lost in a large volume of detail. To try to avoid this, the first chapter in this volume, by Dr. Paul N. Rylander provides a working summary of the more important catalytic con­ versions of this type. In doing this, he also gives some valuable comments about catalyst selection, together with an indication of the reaction conditions used in practice, the more important of the problems usually encountered, and comments about the most important of the mechanistic features. It has long been recognized that an understanding of the chemical nature of solid surfaces is fundamental to an understanding of catalytic processes which may take place upon them. This question may be approached in two distinct ways. One is via surface crystallography which focuses attention upon long range order. The second concentrates upon the concept of the surface functional group where attention is mainly upon the chemistry characteristic of a particular localized atomic arrangement at the surface. In practice, of course, there exists a continuum between these idealized extremes.

Vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data are necessary for the design and operation of distillation processes. It is absolutely impossible to determine a distillation process without VLE data. The author of this book has had much experience designing and constructing distillation processes and towers and knows that VLE data must be easily retrievable, readily comprehensible, and precise. This volume contains the most important VLE data for 1,446 binary systems with Wilson parameters determined by computer processing. The data are also presented graphically. The Wilson equation, which is known as one of the most applicable to multicomponent systems, is employed for computer-aided determination of the optimum parameters using the non-linear least squares method.

Introduction to Process Technology was written to assist those interested in pursuing a career as a process plant operator. The book is comprehensive in scope, covering an overview of the industry, equipment, systems, processes, safety and regulatory concerns, and applied science. The chapters include objectives, a list of the key terms, definitions, chapter summary, and review questions. A glossary is included at the back of the book.

Provides a balanced overview of major topics, theories and applications, written in accessible, interesting style to intrigue and inform students. A variety of formal ethnographys and in-text examples provide students with a sense of rich variety of other cultures and the anthropological literature.
