The five-volume series provides a comprehensive overview of all
important aspects of drying technology like computational tools at
different scales (Volume 1), modern experimental and analytical
techniques (Volume 2), product quality and formulation (Volume 3),
energy savings (Volume 4) and process intensification (Volume
5).
Based on high-level cutting-edge results contributed by
internationally recognized experts in the various treated fields,
this book series is the ultimate reference in the area of
industrial drying. Located at the intersection of the two main
approaches in modern chemical engineering, product engineering and
process systems engineering, the series aims at bringing theory
into practice in order to improve the quality of high-value dried
products, save energy, and cut the costs of drying processes.
Volume 3 discusses how desired properties of foods,
biomaterials, active pharmaceutical ingredients, and fragile
aerogels can be preserved during drying, and how spray drying and
spray fluidized bed processes can be used for particle formation
and formulation. Methods for monitoring product quality, such as
process analytical technology, and modeling tools, such as Monte
Carlo simulations, discrete particle modeling and neural networks,
are presented with real examples from industry and academia.
Other Volumes and Sets:
Volume 1 - Modern Drying Technology, Computational Tools at
Different Scales
Volume 1: Diverse model types for the drying of products and the
design of drying processes (short-cut methods, homogenized, pore
network, and continuous thermo-mechanical approaches) are treated,
along with computational fluid dynamics, population balances, and
process systems simulation tools. Emphasis is put on scale
transitions.
Volume 2 - Modern Drying Technology: Experimental Techniques
Volume 2: Comprises experimental methods used in various
industries and in research in order to design and control drying
processes, measure moisture and moisture distributions,
characterize particulate material and the internal micro-structure
of dried products, and investigate the behavior of particle systems
in drying equipment. Key topics include acoustic levitation,
near-infrared spectral imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, X-ray
tomography, and positron emission tracking.
Volume 4 - Modern Drying Technology: Energy SavingsVolume 4:
Deals with the reduction of energy demand in various drying
processes and areas, highlighting the following topics: Energy
analysis of dryers, efficient solid-liquid separation techniques,
osmotic dehydration, heat pump assisted drying, zeolite usage,
solar drying, drying and heat treatment for solid wood and other
biomass sources, and sludge thermal processing.
Volume 5 - Process Intensification
Volume 5: Dedicated to process intensification by more efficient
distribution and flow of the drying medium, foaming, controlled
freezing, and the application of superheated steam, infrared
radiation, microwaves, power ultrasound and pulsed electric fields.
Process efficiency is treated in conjunction with the quality of
sensitive products, such as foods, for a variety of hybrid and
combined drying processes.
