Oleochemical Manufacture and Applications

Klappentext This volume is concerned with the use of over 16 million tonnes of oils and fats by the oleochemical industry worldwide. It provides an overview of oleochemicals at research and professional level, with an emphasis on their industrial production and applications. Approximately half of the chapters consider matters of relevance throughout the oleochemical industry, while the remainder deal with applications. Authors are drawn from industrial and academic laboratories around the world. a . a wealth of literature references to oleochemical products and processes.a Edward C Leonard, Lipid Technology, May 2002 "It is refreshing to find a book that can take the industry as a whole, and allow both newcomers and senior members of the industry the opportunity to fully acquant themselves with aspects that they may not have encountered before." Dr Clare Temple--Heald, Chemistry & Industry, December 2002 a .a useful addition to the bookshelf.a Chemistry World This volume is concerned with the use of over 16 million tonnes of oils and fats by the oleochemical industry worldwide. It provides an overview of oleochemicals at research and professional level, with an emphasis on their industrial production and applications.
