Handbook of Industrial Crystallization
Learn from the experts about industrial crystallization in this third edition of a widely regarded classic that has been completely revised to reflect the latest developments in the field. New chapters on crystal nucleation, molecular modelling application, and precipitation and crystallization of pigments and dyes are included, as well as completely revised chapters on crystallization of proteins, crystallizer selection and design, control of crystallization processes, and process analytical technology. Richly illustrated with 150 new diagrams and photographs, and with dozens of practical hands-on examples, this is an ideal introduction for newcomers, and serves as an excellent reference for experienced professionals covering aspects of industrial crystallization in a single, complete volume.
- Continued interest and new developments in the field make a third edition warranted, after the first two successful editions, and this edition includes new chapters and updates
- Includes in the first several chapters the basics to get newcomers up to speed, and then following this, focuses on areas of industrial importance
- Written by leaders and experts in the field of crystallization
Reviews & endorsements
'In its experimental and theoretical aspects, the present handbook is well organized. One of the major strengths of the book is the fact that, despite its wide range of topics, the editors succeeded in combining the different contributions in a very coherent framework. The book represents a good overview of knowledge of the widespread field of industrial crystallization. I recommend the book to scientists and engineers working in this field.' Klaus-Werner Benz, Journal of Applied Crystallography
