| water treatment essentials for boiler plant operation: Applied Chemistry: A Textbook for Engineers and Technologists H.D. Gesser, 2013-11-27 This book is the result of teaching a one semester course in Applied Chemistry (Chemistry 224) to second year engineering students for over 15 years. The contents of the course evolved as the interests and needs of both the students and Engineering Faculty changed. All the students had at least one semester of Introductory Chemistry and it has been assumed in this text that the students have been exposed to Thermodynamics, Chemical Kinetics, Solution Equilibrium, and Organic Chemistry. These topics must be discussed either before starting the Applied subjects or developed as required if the students are not familiar with these prerequisites. Engineering students often ask Why is another Chemistry course required for Non-Chemical Engineers? There are many answers to this question but foremost is that the Professional Engineer must know when to consult a Chemist and be able to communicate with him. When this is not done the consequences can be a disaster due to faulty design, poor choice of materials or inadequate safety factors. Examples of blunders abound and only a few will be described in an attempt to convince the student to take the subject matter seriously. |
| water treatment essentials for boiler plant operation: Handbook of Food Process Design, 2 Volume Set Jasim Ahmed, Mohammad Shafiur Rahman, 2012-05-21 In the 21st Century, processing food is no longer a simple or straightforward matter. Ongoing advances in manufacturing have placed new demands on the design and methodology of food processes. A highly interdisciplinary science, food process design draws upon the principles of chemical and mechanical engineering, microbiology, chemistry, nutrition and economics, and is of central importance to the food industry. Process design is the core of food engineering, and is concerned at its root with taking new concepts in food design and developing them through production and eventual consumption. Handbook of Food Process Design is a major new 2-volume work aimed at food engineers and the wider food industry. Comprising 46 original chapters written by a host of leading international food scientists, engineers, academics and systems specialists, the book has been developed to be the most comprehensive guide to food process design ever published. Starting from first principles, the book provides a complete account of food process designs, including heating and cooling, pasteurization, sterilization, refrigeration, drying, crystallization, extrusion, and separation. Mechanical operations including mixing, agitation, size reduction, extraction and leaching processes are fully documented. Novel process designs such as irradiation, high-pressure processing, ultrasound, ohmic heating and pulsed UV-light are also presented. Food packaging processes are considered, and chapters on food quality, safety and commercial imperatives portray the role process design in the broader context of food production and consumption. |

| water treatment essentials for boiler plant operation: Operation and Maintenance of Steam Power Boilers Rajendra Kumar, 2008-06-02 Modern boilers proactively integrated disciplines of mechanical and combustion engineering with those of metallurgical, inclusive of corrosion and welding. This book seeks to build bridges across the seemingly different disciplines. The book provides a brief description of the important functional sections of the power boiler and highlights salient features of their design. It characterizes coal and outlines features of heat transfer from the point of view of their impact on boilers design.; It interweaves the discussion with metallurgical factors covering structural degradation, deformation, corrosion and welding. Metallurgical issues which have direct bearing on plant life and reliable boiler performance are specially discussed. Another unique feature of the book is that its presentation of the subject matter emphasizes that operation and maintenance engineers have to make common cause with metallurgy in order to humble the forces causing unscheduled outages resulting in lower plant load factors and lower plant life. |
