Textbook Of Separation Processes

by S. Suresh, Amit Keshav

Overview

It is vital for a Chemical Engineer to understand various separation processes and its operations. This book helps the beginners to understand the concepts and its applications in chemical process industries. This book can be used for preparation of GATE and other Competitive Exams and also contains solved examples at the end. The Textbook of Separation Processes helps readers to understand basic concepts and master the separation process including latest processes. The authors have explained key separation processes: Absorption/Stripping, Distillation, Liquid-Liquid Extraction, Leaching, Evaporation, Crystallization and Drying of Solid with exceptional clarity, realistic examples, and case studies. The book starts by reviewing basic concepts, such as equilibrium and unit operations; then introduces a step-by-step process for solving separation problems. Next, it introduces each leading processes, including advanced processes such as supercritical extraction, ionic liquids, membrane separation, reactive extraction, adsorption, biosorption, phytosorption, ion-exchange and chromatography. For each process, the author presents essential principles, techniques, and equations, as well as detailed case studies. Separation Process Engineering is the new, includes improved organization, extensive new coverage, and more than 85% new homework problems and real laboratory schematic experimental setup. Coverage includes: Extensive new coverage of membrane separations, including gas permeation, reverse osmosis, Ultra filtration, evaporation, and key applications; New chapters on-Reactive extraction process are explained with special case studies and real data for easier understanding-A detailed introduction and modeling to sorption's process like adsorption, biosorption and phytosorption, ion exchange and chromatography: everything students need to understand advanced work in these areas;

About the Author

Dr. S. Suresh is an Assistant Professor in Department of Chemical Engineering, Maulana Azad National Institute of Technology Bhopal- 462 051, Madhya Pradesh, India. He received his Ph.D in Chemical Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, India. He has extensive research background in the field of separation process,reactor design and published many international and national research papers. Part of his work is also published in a text book titled "Comprehensive Biotechnology: Engineering Fundamentals in Biotechnology",edited by Murray Moo-Young in Elsevier Sciences. He has also worked in Pondicherry (Central) University and Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur in the area of Environmental pollution & its control and Membrane process. His research interests include process modeling and simulation, preparation of nano-catalyst/materials, Biochemical Engg. (Fermentation, Bioreactor design); Environmental Engineering and Energy Engineering (Multicomponent adsorption,phytoremediation, composting technology, waste water treatment, membrane process,Biomass to biofuels/bioproducts, carbon sequestration, desulphurization, wet air oxidation, sequential batch reactor, treatment of petroleum oily sludge). He has received many awards and honours for his research contribution. Uttarakhand State Council for Science & Technology, Department of Science & Technology, India has honoured him with Young Scientist Award in 2009. He has received Visiting Research Fellowship at International Centre for Materials Science, JNCASR, Bangalore,India; 2011-2012. During his last two years, he had been involved at various levels in organization of two national level short-term courses. He is actively involved inresearch and had been reviewer of many international journal papers. He has beenkeynote speaker and resource person at several international and national conferences and programmes.



Dr. Amit Keshav is working as Assistant Professor in Department of Chemical Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Raipur - 492 010, Chhattisgarh, India. He has received Ph.D. from Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IITR), India. He has published many papers in international/national research journals (more than 22) and attended international and national conferences (more than 40). He worked as lecturer at Seth Jai Parkashand Mukand Lal Instutute of Engineering and Technology (JMIT), Radaur for more than three years and presently working as Assistant Professor at National Institute of Technology, Raipur for last 2 years. He had worked as head of department at JMIT Radaur for a period of more than a year and had set up various labs at both the institutes he had worked. During the last five years he had been involved at various levels in organization of three national level seminars. He is actively involved in research and had been reviewer of many international journal papers. His working areas are Reactive extraction, Vapour liquid equilibria, Process intensification, Food science, Adsorption and CFD. HIGHLIGHTS OF THIS TEXTBOOK The textbook of separation processes covers, the syllabus of B.Tech, M.Tech Chemical,Biochemical, Environment and Energy Engineering. The book illustrates the basic principles as well as advanced separation processes: Supercritical fluid extraction,Pervaporation, Application of membrane modules, Liquid Membrane particularly ionic liquids, Hybrid systems, Reactive extraction with process intensification & its modelling, Adsorption, Biosorption and its modelling, Phyto-sorption, Ion exchange, Chromotography, Catalytic processes. The book also deals with Case studies for better understanding. This book is certainly useful for research scholars who are working in the areas of Chemical, Biochemical, Environment and Energy Engineering.
