Heinrich Strathmann is Professor Emeritus of the University of Twente, The Netherlands. He obtained his basic education in Physical Chemistry at the University of Darmstadt in Germany where he received his Dr.-Ing. in 1965. He worked for several years in the membrane based industry in the United States and in Germany. He is also Associate Professor at the University of Stuttgart and Honorary Prrofessor at South China Central University.Dr. Strathmann is on the editorial board of various scientific journals and is author of three books on membrane science and technology. In 2007 he was awarded by the European Membrane Society with the R.M. Barrer Price.
Written by a dedicated lecturer and leading membrane scientist, who has worked both in academia and industry, this advanced textbook provides an impressive overview of all aspects of membranes and their applications. Together with numerous industrial case studies, practical examples and questions, the book provides an excellent and comprehensive introduction to the topic. Advanced students as well as process and chemical engineers working in industry will profit from this resource. A significant feature of the book is the treatment of more recently developed membranes and their applications in energy conversion, biomedical components, controlled release devices and environmental engineering with an indication of the present and future commercial impact.The solutions to the questions in the book cdan be found underhttp://www.wiley-vch.de/publish/en/books/ISBN3-537-32451-8/From the Contents:* Introduction* Fundamentals* Membrane Preparation and Characterization* Principles of Membrane Separation Processes* Membrane Modules and Concentration Polarization* Membrane Process Design and Operation|Ein beeindruckender Überblick über alle Facetten des Themas: Dieses Lehrbuch für Fortgeschrittene bietet mit zahlreichen Fallstudien, praxisnahen Beispielen und vielen Tipps eine hervorragenden Einstieg für Studenten und praktisch tätigen Prozess- und Chemieingenieuren.
* Membrane Technology is an essential topic for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students, ie E70000, esp E70700, E70900 & E71000. * As it is a green technology, the topic is of utmost importance to industry and is therefore increasingly taught in universities.
