Although batch processing has existed for a long time, designing
these processes and unit operations has been considered an onerous
task that required computational efforts. Design of these processes
is made more complex because of the time dependent nature of the
process and the allowable flexibility. More often than not, every
unit encounters optimal control problems. Therefore, traditional
design books have not covered batch processing in detail. Filling
this void, Batch Processing: Modeling and Design describes various
unit operations in batch and bio-processing as well as design
methods for these units. Topics include: Batch distillation
operating modes and configurations Batch absorption operations
based on the solubility difference Batch adsorption based on
differential affinity of various soluble molecules to solid
absorbents Batch chromatography for measuring a wide variety of
thermodynamic, kinetic, and physico-chemical properties Batch
crystallization where a phase is used to find the supersaturation
at which point material crystallizes Batch drying that stresses the
phase diagram of water to describe this operation Batch filtration
using a porous medium or screen to separate solids from liquids
Batch centrifugation where centrifugal force is used for separation
Batch processes are widely used in pharmaceutical, food, and
specialty chemicals where high value, low volume products are
manufactured. Recent developments in bio-based manufacturing also
favor batch processes because feed variations can be easily handled
in batch processes. Further, the emerging area of nanomaterials
manufacturing currently uses batch processes as they are low
volume, high energy intensive processes. With examples, case
studies, and more than 100 homework problems, this book describes
the unit operations in batch and bioprocessing and gives students a
thorough grounding in the numerical methods necessary to solve
these design problems.
