Deposition and aggregation of small solid particles are encountered in many natural and industrial environments. Whether it be deposition of particles onto a surface immersed in a liquid suspendion or aggregation of individual particles, these processes are of much significance. They are vital to the manufacture of magnetic tape, purification of water using packed bed filters, selective capture of solids, cells and macromolecular species, and many other applications. The book presents a unified approach to the measurement, modelling and simulation of these processes, bringing together the disciplines of colloid and surface chemistry, hydrodynamics, and experimental and computational methods. The text is appropriate for process and environmental engineers in the petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food and mining industries, and postgraduate chemical, civil, environmental health and textile engineering students.

Softcover. Condition: Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschürfungen / Risse / Knicke. This book explores the systematic measurement, modeling, and simulation of particle deposition and aggregation, integrating disciplines such as colloid and surface chemistry, hydrodynamics, and both experimental and computational methods. It is organized into four parts. The first part outlines the theoretical principles governing deposition and aggregation, focusing on the forces between particles and the hydrodynamic factors influencing their movement. The second part introduces modeling techniques, starting with simple interactions (e.g., single particle-surface and single particle-particle) and advancing to complex systems involving multiple particle interactions, along with relevant simulation protocols and computational tools. The third part reviews experimental methods for quantifying aggregation and deposition, concluding with a comparison of experimental findings against theoretical predictions. The final part provides illustrative examples that showcase the application of simulation and modeling methods in particle filtration, aggregation, and transport processes. This resource is aimed at graduate students in process and environmental engineering, as well as scientists seeking to deepen their understanding of realistic process conditions where fluid dynamics and other complexities play a significant role.
