Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction. Applications and Services
The four-volume set LNCS 6765-6768 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction, UAHCI 2011, held as Part of HCI International 2011, in Orlando, FL, USA, in July 2011, jointly with 10 other conferences addressing the latest research and development efforts and highlighting the human aspects of design and use of computing systems. The 72 revised papers included in the fourth volume were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: speech, communication and dialogue; interacting with documents and images; universal access to education and learning; well being, health and rehabilitation applications; and universal access in complex working environments.
Heterogeneous Catalysts
Heterogeneous catalysis is at the core of chemical manufacturing. The book covers the importance of surfaces, interfaces and nanoscale materials in heterogeneous catalysis. It covers the synthesis of inorganic and nanosized inorganic catalysts and includes green synthesis methods. It describes characterization techniques and discusses challenges and opportunities in the scale up of catalysts production.
Process Engineering
This book provides a comprehensive introduction to chemical process engineering, linking the fundamental theory and concepts to the industrial practice. This 2nd Edition contains new chapters on biological wastewater treatment, dynamic simulation, and PID discussion. It enables the reader to integrate fundamental knowledge of the basic disciplines, to understand key chemical processes, and to apply this knowledge to the practice in industry.
Advanced Process Engineering Control
As a mature topic in chemical engineering, the book provides methods, problems and tools used in process control engineering. It discusses: process knowledge, sensor system technology, actuators, communication technology, and logistics, design and construction of control systems and their operation. The knowledge goes beyond the traditional process engineering field by applying the same principles, to biomedical processes, energy production and management of environmental issues. The book explains all the determinations in the "chemical systems" or "process systems", starting from the beginning of the processes, going through the intricate interdependency of the process stages, analyzing the...
Process Systems Engineering
Process systems engineering (PSE) is a discipline that delivers tools for guided decision-making in the development of new processes and products. Proven successful in the pharmaceutical-, food- and water sectors, it has also breached the field of energy systems. The future energy systems aim to be more efficient, cost-effective, environmentally benign, and interconnected. The design and operation is extremely challenging for decision-makers, engineers, and scientists and here lies a crucial role for the process systems engineer.
Heterogeneous Catalysis
This textbook is a concise introduction to heterogeneous catalysis, focusing on the fundamentals and industrial implementation. It is written in a clear manner using language that is easily accessible to undergraduate students in chemical engineering and industrial chemistry. The textbook includes exercise problems and practice software. New in this edition are sections on catalyst preparation and manufacture, kinetic parameter estimation, and catalytic transport-line reactors. Solutions to all the example problems are now provided.
Integrated Chemical Processes in Liquid Multiphase Systems
Liquid multiphase processes represent a promising option for realizing novel, efficient, and sustainable production processes, as required for the transformation towards climate-neutral manufacturing processes. This volume presents the results obtained over twelve years in the DFG-funded collaborative project Transregio 63 “Integrated Chemical Processes in Liquid Multiphase Systems”. In an interdisciplinary approach to the design and operation of such processes, essential principles of Green Chemistry are realized, such as using long-chain olefins as model representatives of renewable raw materials, highly effi cient catalysts, and green solvents, linked with process optimization to impr...
Product and Process Design
Product and Process Design: Driving Innovation is a comprehensive textbook for students and industrial professionals. It treats the combined design of innovative products and their innovative manufacturing processes, providing specific methods for BSc, MSc, PDEng and PhD courses. Students, industrial innovators and managers are guided through all design steps in all innovation stages (discovery, concept, feasibility, development, detailed engineering, and implementation) to successfully obtain novel products and their novel processes. The authors’ decades of innovation experience in industry, as well as in teaching BSc, MSc, and post-academic product and process design courses, thereby including the latest design publications, culminate in this book.
Scale-Up Processes
Common scale-up methods are conventional where the blind piloting is essential. This imposes huge investment and leads to failures mostly in solid processing. However, the limitations of resources, current shortcomings, short time-to-market demand are forced companies to minimize piloting. With these situations in mind, current digitalization outlook and computational facilities, we proposed and developed a novel iterative scale up method with case studies which highly expedites the process innovation through the following key sequences:
Vapor Cloud Explosions
The oil and gas industry operates installations and processes with important quantities of flammable substances within a wide range of pressures and temperatures. A particular hazard for this type of installations is an accidental release of a large quantity of flammable material resulting in the formation of a flammable cloud within the installation. Upon ignition, such a cloud may lead to an explosion producing shockwaves with enough energy to cause substantial damage to people and assets. Such accidents are commonly named "Vapor Cloud Explosions". This book gives insight in the phenomena involved in Vapor Cloud Explosions and proposes strategies for their prevention and mitigation.
