Gathering and defining a large portion of special named processes that may fall outside standard chemical texts or be scattered among industry manuals, Encyclopedic Dictionary of Named Processes in Chemical Technology, Fourth Edition provides a single-source reference on an extensive array of named processes. It provides concise descriptions of those processes in chemical technology that are known by special names that are not self-explanatory. While overviews of the chemical technology industry are present in other books, most of the names defined within this volume are unique to this compilation. This reference includes named processes in current commercial use around the world, processes that have been or are being piloted on a substantial scale, and even obsolete processes that have been important in the past.
The length of the dictionary entries reflects their importance and topicality. The text includes references that document the origins of the processes and review the latest developments. Written by a highly experienced and respected author, this user-friendly text is presented in a practical dictionary format that is useful for a broad audience including industrial chemists and engineers.
Dr. Alan Comyns has had an unusually varied career in academic, government, and industrial research laboratories. He has worked at the Atomic Energy Research Establishment, Harwell, UK; British Titan Products (now Huntsman), UK; Westinghouse Electric, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; and National Lead (now Kronos), Sayerville, New Jersey. He was also a part-time visiting lecturer in industrial chemistry at the University of East Anglia.
