Summary
Summary
This didactic approach to the principles and modeling of mass transfer as it is needed in modern industrial processes is unique in combining a step-by-step introduction to all important fundamentals with the most recent applications. Based upon the renowned author's successful new modeling method as used for the O-18 process, the exemplary exercises included in the text are fact-proven, taken directly from existing chemical plants.
Fascinating reading for chemists, graduate students, chemical and process engineers, as well as thermodynamics physicists.
Author Notes
Koichi Asano, recent emeritus of the Tokyo Institute of Tech- nology, began his studies of chemical engineering there in 1960, becoming assistant professor in 1970. He was made Full Professor in 1984 and accepted a position as Professor at Utsunomiya University in Tochigi prefecture in 1997. He won the Grand Award in 1997 and the Engineering Prize in 2006 from the Society of Chemical Engineers, Japan. He was editor of the Journal of Chemical Engineering of Japan from 1991 to 1992, and has authored three books as well as co-au-thored several others. Professor Asano's groundbreaking work in the fi eld of mass transfer modeling led to the begin- ning of industrial separation of the stable oxygen isotope 18 by distillation in June 2004.
