With the development of Chemical Engineering in recent years, it has become an engineering science with complete system, rich content and advanced techniques.
We are proud to have edited this volume of Chemical Engineering Transactions that reviews the latest development and applications in various fields related to Chemical Engineering and beyond.
It is devoted to the gamut of chemical engineering issues, from theoretical aspects to application-dependent studies and the validation of emerging technologies.
This volume was envisioned to represent the growing needs in energy efficiency, sustainable development, and application of hybrid information technology etc.
It focuses on the methodological aspects related to the development of the theme of Chemical Engineering and description of case studies or specific researches.
The selected papers cover the vibrant field of engineering study and offer a truly multidisciplinary account of the multifaceted phenomenon of chemical engineering as a whole.
In total of seven major subjects relating to up-to-date research in the areas of Chemical Engineering, General Physical and Mechanical Engineering, Heat and Mass Transfer, Minerals, Metallurgy and Materials, Oil, Gas and Coal Technology, Physics and Chemistry of the Earth and Risk and Hazard Analysis are included.
We thank for all those authors who sent their work to Chemical Engineering Transactions for publication and the reviewers for their time and great efforts to review the manuscript.
This volume would be impossible without their full commitment and support.
