Principles of Downstream Techniques in Biological and Chemical Processes

Principles of Downstream Techniques in Biological and Chemical Processes

Downstream processing is an essential practice in the production and purification of biosynthethic materials which is especially important in the production of pharmaceutical products. This book covers the fundamentals and the design concepts of various downstream recovery and purification steps (unit operations) involved in biochemical and chemical processes. The book describes cell breakage and recovery of intracellular material isolation of solids product recovery product enrichment and product polishing and finishing. It also covers basic chemical engineering purification techniques such as distillation absorption adsorption etc. Described in the book are several case studies that discuss the various unit operation in each of the processes. An important point to consider is the economics of the downstream operation and this book provides practical information on capital costs and operating expenses in addition to other operating cost factors with respect to downstream processing. Green chemistry and safety issues are also addressed.

Foundations of Nanotechnology Volume Three Mechanics of Carbon Nanotubes

In this research notes book the modelling of mechanical properties of CNT/polymer nanocomposites is presented. The book begins with the structural and intrinsic mechanical properties of CNTs and then introduces computational methods that have been applied to polymer nanocomposites covering from molecular scale (molecular dynamics Monte Carlo) microscale (Brownian dynamics dissipative particle dynamics lattice Boltzmann time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau method dynamic density functional theory method) to mesoscale and macroscale (micromechanics equivalent-continuum and self-similar approaches finite element method). Knowledge of the nature and mechanics of the length and orientation of nanotubes and load transfer between nanotubes and polymers is critical for the manufacturing of enhanced carbon nanotube polymer composites. It also enables the tailoring of the interface for specific applications or superior mechanical properties. This book discusses the state of these parameters in mechanics of carbon nanotube polymer composites and presents some directions for future research in this field. The book’s aim is to enhance current knowledge in this area to support researchers in carbon nanotubes and help them choose the appropriate modelling tool for accomplishing their research. | Foundations of Nanotechnology Volume Three Mechanics of Carbon Nanotubes

Mechanics of Finite Deformation and Fracture

Mechanics of Finite Deformation and Fracture

This important work covers the fundamentals of finite deformation in solids and constitutive relations for different types of stresses in large deformation of solids. In addition the book covers the fracture phenomena in brittle or quasi-brittle materials in which large deformation does not occur. The book provides a thorough understanding of fracture mechanics as well. Since mathematical proof with full derivation is demonstrated throughout the book readers will gain the skills to understand and drive the basic concepts on their own enabling them to put forward new ideas and solutions. Finite deformations in material can occur with change of geometry such that the deformed shape may not resemble the initial shape. Analyzing these types of deformations needs a particular mathematical tool that is always associated with tensor notations. In general the geometry may be non-orthogonal and the use of covariant and contra-variant tensor concepts to express the finite deformations and the associated mechanical strains are needed. In addition it is obvious that in large deformations there are several definitions for stress each depending on the frame of the stress definitions. The constitutive equations in material also depends on the type of stress that is introduced. In simulation of the material deformation components of the deformation tensor will be transformed from one frame to another either in orthogonal or in non-orthogonal coordinate of geometry. This informative book covers all this in detail. | Mechanics of Finite Deformation and Fracture
