In recent years, interest in the technology of gas cleaning has
grown, driven partly by environmental legislation, but also by
demands for increases in process efficiency and intensity - notable
for power generation and waste incineration. This book, which leads
on from our successful Gas Cleaning at High Temperatures, describes
the present state of the art and its industrial applications.
This volume comprises the papers presented at the Second
International Symposium on Gas Cleaning at High Temperatures, held
at the University of Surrey, Guildford, UK on 27-29 September,
1993. The Symposium was organised by the Department of Chemical and
Process Engineering and the Centre for Environmental Strategy of
the University of Surrey, and co-sponsored by The Institution of
Chemical Engineers, The Filtration Society and the Royal Society of
Chemistry. Co-chairmen R. Clift Centre for Environmental Strategy,
University of Surrey J. P. K. Seville Department of Chemical and

Over half of the products of the chemical and process industries
are sold in a particulate form. The range of such products is vast:
from agrochemicals to pigments, from detergents to foods, from
plastics to pharmaceuticals. However, surveys of the performance of
processes designed to produce particulate products have
consistently shown inadequate design and poor reliability. Particle
technology' is a new subject facing new challenges. Chemical and
process engineering is becoming less concerned with the design of
plants to produce generic simple chemicals (which are often single
phase fluids) and is now more concerned with speciality effect'
chemicals which may often be in particulate form. Chemical and
process engineers are also being recruited in increasing numbers
into areas outside their tranditional fields, such as the food
industry, pharmaceuticals and the manufacture of a wide variety of
consumer products. This book has been written to meet their needs.
It provides comprehensive coverage of the technology of particulate
solids, in a form which is both accessible and concise enough to be
useful to engineering and science students in the final year of an
undergraduate degree, and at Master's level. Although it was
written with students of chemical engineering in mind, it will also
be of use and interest to students of other disciplines. It
comprises an account of the fundamentals of teh subject,
illustrated by worked examples, and followed by a wide range of
selected applications.
