Fluidized-Bed Reactors: Processes and Operating Conditions

John G. Yates, Ramsay Memorial Emeritus Professor of Chemical Engineering at UCL, is one of the pioneers on Particle Technology and is widely recognized especially on the field of fluidized bed applications. He wrote one of the earliest books on the subject in 1983 "Fundamentals of fluidized-bed chemical processes", Butterworth-Heinemann. John G. Yates is a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering and a Fellow of both the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Institution of Chemical Engineers.
