Sinopsis

As the subtitle indicates, the overriding intention of the authors has been to provide a practical guide to the design of electrolytic plant. We wanted to show that the procedures for the design and optimization of such a plant are essentially simple and can be performed by readers comparatively new to the electrochemical field. It was important to realize that electrochemical engineering should not be confused with applied electrochemistry but had to be based on the principles of chemical engineering. For this reason, reference is often made to standard chemical engineering texts. Since this is a practical guide rather than a textbook, we have included a large number of worked examples on the principle that a good worked example is worth many paragraphs of text. In some examples we have quoted costs, e.g., of chemicals, plant or services. These costs are merely illustrative; current values will have to be obtained from manufacturers or journals. If this is not possible, approximate methods are available for updating costs to present-day values (see Refs. 1 and 3, Chapter 6).

Reseña del editor

The authors offer a practical guide to designing an electrolytic plant. Using the basic principles of chemical engineering, they describe the procedures for the design and optimization of such a plant. Procedures are explained in a clear manner and can be performed by readers new to the electrochemical field. The authors include numerous worked examples and emphasize the use of reaction, reactor, and process models. This volume is designed for undergraduate and graduate students in science and engineering as well as for the practicing chemist and chemical engineer.
