A. Rushton, A.S. Ward, R.G. Holdich Solid-Liquid Filtration and Separation Technology Second, Completely Revised Edition The second edition of this successful book maintains the strength of the first edition and includes the most recent publications. One of the highlights is the major revision and updating of the chapters dealing with the fundamental processes of filtration and sedimantation. Full details are provided on how to simulate the formation of filter compacts and sediments. The extensive revision of the section of crossflow membrane microfiltration includes discussions of emerging applications. A new section concerns the design of microfilter membranes to minimise fouling and information on the use of critical flux strategy to avoid permanent flux decay. Like the first edition, this edition is expected to become a classic.
