Sommario/riassunto |

This collection explores the methods and challenges of containing corrosive and abrasive materials at extreme temperatures, whether they |
|
|

|
|
|
|
are used across commodities or technology specific. There is much to be learned from cross-commodity and cross-technology perspectives and this collection creates a platform for the exchange of ideas on the challenges, solutions, failures, and successes in furnace containment designs and applications while bringing together perspectives from industry, design houses, and research institutions. Topics include, but are not limited to: · Advances in furnace lining design philosophies · Advances in furnace design configurations and other design considerations · Problems experienced and their solutions implemented during construction and commissioning · Integration of new concepts into old smelters · Back to basics: refractory materials, shells, and cooling systems · Maintaining and monitoring · Process control and slag design · Lessons learned. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
The book deals with an environmentally important family of polymers that is designed to be disposed of in industrial and municipal compost facilities after their useful life. These compostable plastics undergo degradation and leave no visible, distinguishable or toxic residue. Environmental concerns and legislative measures taken in different regions of the world make composting an increasingly attractive route for the disposal of redundant polymers.This book provides up-to-date results and information about compostable polymer materials in a coherent and comprehensive manner.
