- Description
- xv, 430 pages : illustrations; 24 cm
- Summary
- This practical resource offers detailed coverage of fluid/particle separation in centrifuges - examining equipment, selection, testing, and optimization for specific applicationsfrom small-scale protein separations to large-scale industrial techniques involving batch and continuous feed sedimenting, as well as parallel filtering operations.
- This work is an important day-to-day guide for all disciplines involving centrifugation including, chemical, mechanical, aerospace, electrical and electronics control, materials, and manufacturing engineers, plant managers, process engineers, production supervisors, operators, and technicians in industry and researchers in academics; and upper-level undergraduate, graduate, and continuing-education students.
