{"product_id":"9780080463926","title":"Packed Bed Columns: For Absorption, Desorption, Rectification and Direct Heat Transfer","description":"\u003cp\u003ePacked bed columns are largely employed for absorption, desorption, rectification and direct heat transfer processes in chemical and food industry, environmental protection and also processes in thermal power stations like water purification, flue gas heat utilization and SO2 removal.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThese Separation processes, are estimated to account for 40%-70% of capital and operating costs in process industry. Packed bed columns are widely employed in this area. Their usage also for direct heat transfer between gas and liquid, enlarge their importance. They are the best apparatuses, from thermodynamical point of view, for mass and heat transfer processes between gas and liquid phase.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTheir wide spreading is due to low capital investments and operating costs. Since 1995 there has not been published a specialised book in this area, and this is a period of quick development of packed columns. \u003ci\u003ePacked Bed Columns\u003c\/i\u003e reflects the state of this field including the author's experience on creating and investigating of new packings, column internals and industrial columns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsiders the theories of mass transfer processes and shows how they help the construction of highly effective packings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete information about the performance characteristics of different modern types of highly effective packings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsiders the models for calculation and areas of their application\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Elsevier Science","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47119492219120,"sku":"9780080463926","price":267.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780080463926_p0.jpg?v=1763637155","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780080463926","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
