Handbook of Conveying and Handling of Particulate Solids : Volume 10 Hardback

Edited by A. Levy, Christopher J, MSc MBChB FFOM FRCP(Glas) (Director of Occupational Health and Safety Service Kalman

Part of the Handbook of Powder Technology series

Hardback

Description

This handbook presents comprehensive coverage of the technology for conveying and handling particulate solids.

Each chapter covers a different topic and contains both fundamentals and applications.

Usually, each chapter, or a topic within a chapter, starts with one of the review papers.

Chapter 1 covers the characterization of the particulate materials.

Chapter 2 covers the behaviour of particulate materials during storage, and presents recent developments in storage and feeders design and performance.

Chapter 3 presents fundamental studies of particulate flow, while Chapters 4 and 5 present transport solutions, and the pitfalls of pneumatic, slurry, and capsule conveying.

Chapters 6, 7 and 8 cover both the fundamentals and development of processes for particulate solids, starting from fluidisation and drying, segregation and mixing, and size-reduction and enlargement.

Chapter 9 presents environmental aspects and the classification of the particulate materials after they have been handled by one of the above-mentioned processes. Finally, Chapter 10 covers applications and developments of measurement techniques that are the heart of the analysis of any conveying or handling system.
