Apparate stellen das eigentliche Kernstuck in verfahrenstechnischen Anlagen dar. Sie haben die Aufgabe, durch ihre funktionelle Auslegung und Gestaltung die durch das Verfahren festgelegten Grundoperationen zu realisieren. Hierzu gehort auch ihre beanspruchungsgerechte Dimensionierung aufgrund der mechanischen, thermischen und medialen Belastungen sowie Sonder- und Zusatzlasten. Dabei muss eine ausreichende Festigkeit und Stabilitat der Apparate unter Beachtung der Eigenschaften der gewahlten Werkstoffe und ihrer Verarbeitung gewahrleistet sein. In dem Buch werden neben Grundlagen methodisch umfangreiche Beispiele zur festigkeitsma?igen Berechnung von Apparateelementen behandelt und die Ubereinstimmung von Bemessung und Gestaltung auf der Basis des AD-Regelwerkes berucksichtigt. Erganzt werden die Beispiele durch Hinweise auf weiterfuhrende Literatur. Das Buch wendet sich vorwiegend an Ingenieure der Fachrichtungen Verfahrenstechnik und Maschinenbau, die unmittelbar mit der Apparatekonstruktion betraut sind, aber auch an Vertreter angrenzender Fachgebiete, die sich mit der praktischen Festigkeitsberechnung von Apparateelementen befassen.
Der Schutz gegen Explosionen von brennbaren Gasen, Dampfen, Stauben und Nebeln in Gegenwart von Luft oder anderen oxidierenden Gasen ist ein wichtiger Bestandteil von industriellen Prozessen und wird durch detaillierte Vorschriften, Normen und Regeln vorgegeben. Zum Thema dieses Buches gehoren die Ma?nahmen, die insbesondere die Auslosung und die entsprechenden Schaden solcher Explosionen verhindern oder einschranken. Herausgeber und Autoren dieses Buches verfugen uber langjahrige Berufserfahrung und beschreiben die Schutzverfahren und den einschlagigen Stand der Technik, verbunden mit experimentell gesicherten Daten. Betriebs-, Planungs-, Konstruktions- und Sicherheitsingenieure aus Industrie, Genehmigungsbehorden und Berufsgenossenschaften lernen in diesem Handbuch durch ein tiefergehendes Verstandnis der naturwissenschaftlichen und technischen Grundlagen, einen den jeweiligen Verhaltnissen angepassten Explosionsschutz anzuwenden.
Revised and updated, this highly acclaimed work, now in its second edition, remains the most comprehensive source of information available on synthetic organic pigments. The opening part of the book introduces chemical and physical characterization with associated terminology. The middle section describes the synthesis and applications of the various classes of pigment in detail. The final chapter discusses ecological and toxicological themes. Standardized methods have been used to obtain the data thus facilitating comparison between pigments. Chemists, engineers, colorists and technicians are sure to find this book invaluable. From reviews of previous editions: 'Presentation throughout is of the highest quality and the volume must now become the standard reference text in this important area of colouring matters.' Dyes and Pigments 'This is a very wide-ranging reference work … it would be difficult to find a topic in this field not covered by this book.' Ecochem
Chlorinated organic compounds are indispensable in industrial production – but they are usually toxic, often carcinogenic and damage genetic material. In the well-structured tables of this book the user can recognize at a glance the toxicological effects of the classes of chlorinated organic compounds most often used in industry. The clear and scientifically based evaluation of the data shows the risk associated with chlorinated organic compounds. This is a highly up-to-date reference book for toxicologists, chemists and scientists concerned with environmental problems.
This book describes the fascinating wealth of activities as they occur in the design, construction and commissioning of a chemical plant – a jigsaw puzzle of the work of chemical engineers, chemists, constructors, architects, electrical engineers, process automation engineers, economists and legal staff. The author first takes the reader through the conceptual phase, in which the economic relevance and environmental impact need to be considered and supplemented by accurate estimates of capital requirements and profitability. This phase ends with the choice of an appropriate engineering firm and the conclusion of the contract, after which the reader is guided through all aspects of the implementation phase from the engineering of the chemical plant to commissioning, equipment and material procurement, the erection phase and the successful test run, after which the new facility is handed over to its owner. The book also illustrates many potential sources of errors by means of examples from practice, and how, aside professional skills, teamwork and communication are also absolutely essential to keep such a complex project on track.
Written by international experts, this monograph combines two of the most important aspects of modern chemistry, presenting the latest knowledge on these environmental friendly applications. This result is a comprehensive overview of the application of nanoparticles in catalysis, focusing on synthesis and the most important reaction types, providing all the information needed by catalytic, organic and solid state chemists, as well as those working with or on organometallics, materials scientists, and chemists in industry.
This first systematic overview for more than a decade is tailor-made for the medicinal chemist. All the chapters are written by experienced drug developers and include practical examples from real drug candidates. Following an introduction to global drug properties and their impact on drug research, screening and combinatorial chemistry libraries, this handbook demonstrates the best and fastest way to estimate those properties most relevant for the efficiency and pharmacokinetic performance of a drug molecule: lipophilicity,solubility, electronic properties and conformation.
Almost every modern manufacturing process relies on industrial gases, and sales of such gases are expected to rise by around 45% over the next five years. Here, experienced and authoritative experts from one of the two world's largest producer of industrial gases impart their knowledge on atmospheric, noble and synthesized gases, carbon dioxide, LNG, acetylene and other fuel gases, as well as special and medical gases. Modern applications, e.g., the use of hydrogen in fuel cells, are included as well. This practical text is rounded off by a section on logistics.
With its focus on catalysis and addressing two very hot and timely topics with significant implications for our future lives, this will be a white book in the field. The authority behind this practical work is the IDECAT Network of Excellence, and the authors here outline how the use of catalysis will promote the more extensive use of renewable feedstocks in chemical and energy production. They present the latest applications, their applicability and results, making this a ready reference for researchers and engineers working in catalysis, chemistry, and industrial processes wishing to analyze options, outlooks and opportunities in the field.
In this book, the reader is guided through the complex study of dynamic chemical engineering systems by the unique combination of a simplified presentation of the fundamental theory (Part 1) and direct hands-on computer experimentation with the provision of 85 accompanying computer-based simulation examples (Part 2) supplied on diskette. The ISIM digital simulation language is very simple to use and its powerful interactive nature enables the readers to create their own simulations, based on their own specific problems. This powerful dynamic ISIM software is ready to run on any DOS personal computer. The treatment employed in this book is well tried and tested, based on over 20 years experience in teaching an international post- experience course. Whether for the teacher, the student, the chemist or engineer, this book serves as the key to a greater understanding of chemical engineering dynamics through the fun and enjoyment of active learning.
