This book covers all the basic and applied aspects of crystallization processes based on membrane technology. Synthesis and processing of membrane materials are discussed and reviewed, while mass/heat transport and control are treated in view of the non-reversible thermodynamic principles and statistical thermodynamics. Engineering process design and crystalline materials products properties, and also the relation to other traditional crystallization formats, are analyzed. Advantages, limitations, and future developments are also included in the content, with special emphasis on new fields of applications like microfluidic configurations, controlled proteins (also membrane proteins) crystallization, organic semiconductors single crystals production, and optical materials.
Contents:
- Overview of Membrane-Assisted Crystallization Operations
- Theoretical Aspects in Membrane Crystallization
- Membrane Materials
- Membrane Crystallization of Inorganic Compounds
- Morphology, Polymorphism, and Co-Crystallization of Molecular Compounds
- Crystallization of Biomacromolecules
Readership: Undergraduates, graduates, researchers, and professionals studying/dealing with physical chemistry, chemical engineering, materials chemistry/nanochemistry, liquid crystals & crystallography, surface science, and general material science.
Key Features:
- It will cover all basic aspects of membrane science and technology, crystallization and membrane-assisted crystallization processes in only one book
- No other publications exist currently on the theme proposed for this book
