Revised and expanded, this second edition of Mass Transfer and Separation Processes: Principles and Applications provides a complete theoretical introduction to mass transfer theory and separation processes and discusses various biomedical, engineering, and environmental applications. It features over 100 real-world worked examples, illustrative figures, end-of-chapter exercises, and a solutions manual for qualifying instructors. Avoiding an overly mathematical presentation of material, the author conveys a sense of scale in order to develop the art of simplifying assumptions, perform proper modeling, and arrive at quick first estimates. Photographs of actual installations are included.
