Advanced Reactor and Process Technology - from Nano-Manufacturing to Nuclear Transmutation (Hardcover)

Here, the innovative, cross--functional approach highlights how advances in some technological and engineering areas are applicable and beneficial to others, serving to transfer specialized knowledge from one field to another. The book deals with such hot topics as plasmas, cavitation, self--assembly, ionic liquids, and fuel cells, and shows interesting application and combination perspectives. This interdisciplinary approach stimulates readers' creativity and invites them to think across boundaries and thus gain a wider perspective of application potentials, such as a better understanding of missiles as flying chemical factories, or living cells as nanobioreactors. For process engineers, materials scientists, biotechnologists, electrochemists, apparatus construction engineers, materials and chemical institutes.
