Solid-liquid separation is an important industrial process used for recovery of solids from suspensions and/or purification of liquids. Despite its application in many industries, ranging from the treatment of suspensions in the chemical industry to the purification of water supplies, the subject is not adequately covered in most undergraduate courses. Volume 5 of the Handbook provides an up-to-date, balanced and exhaustive account of the available technology in solid-liquid separation. The author emphasises the principles, design, and basic engineering concepts and makes some reference to the basic tests and procedures for scale-up. The intention is to remain as non-commercial as possible, with little reference to manufacturers except when the equipment is unique. The book is intended for practicing engineers, as well as for any newcomers to the field or students. Its exhaustive coverage, the clarity of the descriptions and its organized structure make it an ideal teaching text for undergraduate/postgraduate courses in mineral processing, chemical and process engineering. Technical libraries, equipment manufacturers and users will also find it a very useful book.

Introduction to NMR Spectroscopy

<p>Introduction to NMR Spectroscopy R. J. Abraham, School of Chemistry, University of Liverpool J. Fisher, Biological NMR Centre, University of Leicester P. Loftus, Stuart Pharmaceuticals, Delaware, USA This book is a new, extended edition of Proton and Carbon 13 NMR by R. J. Abraham and P. Loftus. The initial chapters cover the fundamentals of NMR spectroscopy commencing with an explanation of how the nuclear magnetic response occurs, followed by a detailed discussion of chemical shifts and coupling constants, parameters not discussed to any length in other textbooks aimed at a similar level of interest. Emphasis is given to the vectorial description of multipulse experiments, as this is probably the easiest way to grasp how different information may be gained simply by changing a pulse sequence. An understanding of multipulse NMR is a prerequisite for understanding 2D NMR. The section on 2D NMR begins with a discussion of the resolved experiment. This is a logical initial choice as the spectra produced by this experiment may be readily compared with 1D spectra. Following on from this both heteronuclear and homonuclear correlation spectroscopy are described and examples given. The final section of the book should be considered as an applications section. It is aimed at showing the reader that NMR is not just of use to the synthetic organic chemist but is also of use to biochemists for investigating the solution state structure and function of proteins, enzymes, etc. The application of high resolution NMR to the solid state is also discussed, thereby indicating the developments which have taken place as far as spectrometer hardware is concerned.</p>
