The chemical industry changes and becomes more and more integrated worldwide. This creates a need for information exchange that includes not only the principles of operation but also the transfer of practical knowledge.

Integration and Optimization of Unit Operations provides up-to-date and practical information on chemical unit operations from the R&D stage to scale-up and demonstration to commercialization and optimization. A global collection of industry experts systematically discuss all innovation stages, complex processes with different unit operations, including solids processing and recycle flows, and the importance of integrated process validation. The book addresses the needs of engineers who want to increase their skill levels in various disciplines so that they are able to develop, commercialize and optimize processes. After reading this book, you will be able to acquire new skills and knowledge to collaborate across disciplines and develop creative solutions.
