Online resources: Summary: Exploring the success factors that combine to deliver this performance. Finding ways to get more from your processes, with examples, case studies and scenarios. Solid-Liquid Filtration is a crucial step in the production of virtually everything in our daily lives, from metals, plastics and pigments through to foods (and crockery) and medicines. Using a practical and applied approach, Trevor Sparks has created a guide that chemical and process engineers can use to help them: Understand how filtration processes affect production processes, production costs, product quality, environmental impact and productivity Optimise process development and project execution, with real examples and supporting software forms and tools Develop reporting tools to monitor processes, and find ways to get more from processes This book's focus is helping process engineers understand their filtration processes better. Its accessible approach and style make it a valuable resource for anyone working in this sector, regardless of prior knowledge or experience. Several examples and scenarios are provided throughout the book in order to help engineers understand the importance of filtration and the effect that it has on the bottom-line. Covers methods for optimizing processes, include process variable, plus laboratory testing, modeling and process troubleshooting Accompanied by optimization software that enables readers to model and plan optimal filtration processes and set ups for their particular circumstance.Summary: Front Cover -- Solid-Liquid Filtration: A users' guide to minimizing costs andenvironmental impact -- maximizingquality and productivity -- Copyright -- Contents -- Preface -- List of Figures -- Chapter 1 - Introduction -- 1.1 SCOPE -- 1.2 SUMMARY -- Part I Background -- Chapter 2 - History of Filtration -- 2.1 ORIGINS -- 2.2 INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION AND ONWARDS -- 2.3 RECENT HISTORY -- 2.4 CURRENT TRENDS -- 2.5 SUMMARY -- Chapter 3 - Physical Phenomena -- 3.1 BASIC NARRATIVE OF A FILTRATION PROCESS -- 3.2 STEP-BY-STEP NARRATIVE -- 3.3 OTHER NOTABLE PHENOMENA AND THINGS TO LOOK OUT FOR -- 3.4 SUMMARY -- Part II Competitive Advantage -- Chapter 4 - Competitiveness in Processing -- 4.1 PRODUCTION COST -- 4.2 PRODUCT QUALITY -- 4.3 PRODUCTIVITY -- 4.4 SAFETY, HEALTH AND THE ENVIRONMENT -- 4.5 SUMMARY -- Chapter 5 - The Outcomes of Filtration Processes -- 5.1 FILTER CAKE OUTCOMES -- 5.2 FILTRATE OUTCOMES -- 5.3 SLURRY OUTCOMES -- 5.4 FILTRATION COSTS -- 5.5 EXAMPLES OF FILTRATION AS A PART OF A PROCESS -- 5.6 SUMMARY -- Part III Filtration Process Success Factors -- Chapter 6 - Slurry Filterability -- 6.1 THE NATURE OF THE SLURRY TO BE FILTERED -- 6.2 PRETREATMENT OF THE SLURRY -- 6.3 SLURRY HANDLING -- 6.4 SUMMARY -- Chapter 7 - Filter Design -- 7.1 VACUUM FILTRATION: CONTINUOUS -- 7.2 PRESSURE FILTRATION: CONTINUOUS -- 7.3 PRESSURE FILTRATION: DISCONTINUOUS -- 7.4 CENTRIFUGAL FILTRATION -- 7.5 SUMMARY -- Chapter 8 - Filter Installation -- 8.1 HUMAN CONSIDERATIONS -- 8.2 PROCESS CONSIDERATIONS -- 8.3 SLURRY SYSTEMS -- 8.4 CAKE HANDLING -- 8.5 SUMMARY -- Chapter 9 - Filter Cloth -- 9.1 DESIRED OUTCOMES -- 9.2 CLOTH DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE -- 9.3 CLOTH SUPPORT GRID -- 9.4 CLOTH IN OPERATION -- 9.5 SUMMARY -- Chapter 10 - Filter Maintenance -- 10.1 PARTICULAR ISSUES WITH FILTRATION EQUIPMENT -- 10.2 SPEED VERSUS MACHINE SYMPATHY.PPN: PPN: 809473712Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-30-PQE
