de Robert S. Boynton


Información de la editorial

Principles of Industrial Chemistry Chris A. Clausen III & GuyMattson The first book specifically designed to help theacademically trained chemist make the transition to the real worldof industry. It uses process development as a general theme toprovide information normally acquired only through on-the-jobtraining. The authors trace an industrial chemical process fromidea stage to fully operational plant, discuss concepts in unitoperation and their applications, and deal with such subjects asmaterial accounting, energy accounting, mass transport, heattransfer, principles of kinetics, separation methods, instrumentation, economic concepts, and patent procedures. Avaluable overview and insight into the industry. 1978 The Chemistryof Silica Solubility, Polymerization, Colloid and SurfaceProperties, and Biochemistry Ralph K. Iler Silica, the majorcomponent of the earth's solid surface, the constituent of ordinarysand, and an essential material in many forms of life, is involvedin many phases of modern technology and science. Its role in humandisease, aging, and health is just beginning to be explored. Hereis a comprehensive account of the basic chemistry involved in awide range of research and development activities. Also a wealth ofinformation on production and production control. Anyone involvedwith R&D or production in the many diverse fields andindustries in which silica plays a vital role--chemistry, biology, medicine, agriculture, metallurgy, and mining--will find this bookan invaluable reference. 1979 Fourth Edition of Faith, Keyes &Clark's Industrial Chemicals Frederick A. Lowenheim &Marguerite K. Moran The latest updated edition of a manual whosepopularity for a quarter-century attests to its usefulness as ahandy reference--a concise, quick-study source of essentialinformation on 145 commonly used chemicals. For each of them, thebook covers such subjects as reaction and yield or recovery;material and energy requirements by quantities; detailedexplanation of the process involved (with illustrations and flowdiagram); uses of the end product and important by-products;economics of production; specifics on properties, grades, containers and regulations; list of manufacturers and plantlocations; and volume of production and price ranges over the pasttwo decades. A valuable time-saver. 1975

Descripción de la solapa

Soon after the first edition of this book appeared in 1966, it was acclaimed as the "bible" of the lime and limestone industry. Certainly it was the most comprehensive and authoritative study of the subject, an indispensable reference text for chemists, engineers, and researchers, as well as designers of plants and equipment for both this industry and the many others which employed its products in the U.S. and abroad. So valuable was it considered by the mammoth Nippon Steel Corporation of Japan, for instance, that the company at prodigious expense translated it into Japanese for that country's own steel, quarry, lime and cement facilities. In the intervening years, however, extensive technological developments--largely the result of environmental impact and energy constraints, inflation, and industry growth--have created the need for this new, updated version, one which has been so drastically revised and rewritten as to become virtually a new book. Here, then, is the timely second edition of Boynton's classic Chemistry and Technology of Lime and Limestone. It surveys the technological state-of-the-art worldwide, particularly in the U.S., Germany, and Japan. Like the first edition, its emphasis is less on theory than on such practical considerations as the extraction and manufacture of lime and limestone, uses, and applications. And unlike many other technical books, it offers valuable insights into the personality of the industry--its problems and limitations, its statistical trends, and how business is actually done. For anyone who is or wants to be a part of the lime/limestone industry, this is clearly the one book to own, read, and refer to.

Acerca del autor

About the author. ROBERT S. BOYNTON has been intimately involved with lime and limestone most of his business life as Executive Director of the National Lime Association for 32 years. He has served as Chairman of the Association's Technical Committee, and as Secretary, Committee C-7 on lime of the ASTM (American Society of Testing Materials). Mr. Boynton was an investigator in the organization of the International Lime Association, and he has travelled extensively in Europe on investigations. During World War II, he served a stint in the Chemicals Bureau, War Production Board, as commodity specialist of lime and a few other inorganic chemicals, presiding over Lime Industry Advisory Committee Meetings. Since his retirement in 1978, he has utilized his far-ranging knowledge of the industry's technology and markets as a consultant.
