The Development of the Main Work (the Monograph on Cirripedia-Alfred Russell Wallace)Alfred Russell WallaceCharles Darwin: The Founder of the Theory of Evolution and Natural Selection provides a comprehensive coverage of the whole spectrum of the theory of evolution. The title presents the historical accounts and conceptual basis that leads to the foundation of the theory of evolution. The text first covers the history of the theory of evolution; the book also details the early form of the theory up to the point of the theories acceptance. Next, the selection discusses the basis and development of theory of evolution. The book will be of great interest to anyone who wants to investigate in great deDarwin, Charles, 1809-1882 -- BibliographyDarwin, Charles, 1809-1882Evolution (Biology)Darwin, Charles, 1809-1882 -- Bibliography.Darwin, Charles, 1809-1882.Evolution (Biology).576.82925.9Wichler Gerhard65168AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910789584003321Charles Darwin378933UNINA05056nam 2201429z- 450 991055778190332120210501(CKB)5400000000045570(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/68389(oapen)doab68389(EXLCZ)99540000000004557020202105d2021 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierChemical Process Design, Simulation and OptimizationBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20211 online resource (352 p.)3-0365-0096-0 3-0365-0097-9 The book presents a series of articles devoted to modeling, simulation, and optimization of processes, mainly chemical. General methods for process modeling and numerical simulation are described with flowsheeting. Population balances are addressed in detail with application to crystal production; energy saving is frequently optimized, including exergy analysis. The coupling between process simulation and computational fluid dynamics is studied for air classification and bubble columns. Pressure swing adsorption, reactive distillation, and nanofiltration are explained in general and applied to particular processes. The synthesis of carbon dots is solved by the design of experiments method. A safety study addresses the consequences of gas explosion.History of engineering and technologybicsscadsorptionadvanced exergy analysisagglomerationammonia productionartificial neural networkbio-oilbubblebubble plumebutyric anhydridecarbon dotscarbon molecular sieve (CMS)ceramic membraneCFDco-processingcombination systemcross-flowdistillationdynamic controldynamic flowsheet simulationEco-indicator 99energy efficiencyexergyfault diagnosisFCCfixed catalytic bed reactorflame acceleration simulator (FLACS)formalinFormox Perstorpgas-liquid flowheat pumpheavy oil reservoirhydrothermalignition positionin-situ combustionInside-Out methodinternal material circulationinverse problemionic strengthLCAmembrane modulemetal oxide catalystmillingmodelingmodeling DSPM modelmultidimensional distributed parametersn/ananofiltrationnitrogennitrogen generatornumerical modellingnumerical simulationoil recoveryoptimizationorganicorganic Rankine cycleorthogonal polynomialsoscillation and offset characteristicparameter estimationparticle trajectoryphotoluminescencepipe lengthpopulation balance equationpressure and heat lossespressure swing adsorption (PSA)process modellingprocess parametersprocess steam drivepropane-propylene separationprotein solutionquadrature method of momentsreactive distillationregenerative cyclerelative classification sharpness indexresponse surface methodologysilver catalystsimulationsingle reactive distillation columnsoftware linkingsolidssteady state simulationsteam methane reformingsteam networktapiocatotal volume membrane charge densitytransformation matrixturbo air classifierultrafiltrationvacuum gas oilvolume-based population balance model with fines dissolutionHistory of engineering and technologyCorriou Jean-Pierreedt1062404Assaf Jean-ClaudeedtCorriou Jean-PierreothAssaf Jean-ClaudeothBOOK9910557781903321Chemical Process Design, Simulation and Optimization3038991UNINA
