Aerosols - Science and Technology

Das thematisch in sich geschlossene Handbuch widmet sich der Wissenschaft und Technologie der Aerosole in aller Ausführlichkeit. Dabei erfasst es theoretische Grundlagen, experimentelle Verfahren und ein großes Anwendungsspektrum von der Aerosolfiltration bis zu biologischen Aerosolen und von der Synthese von Kohlenstoff-Nanoröhren bis zu Aerosol-Reaktoren. Das international renommierte, fachlich hochqualifizierte Autorenteam wendet sich an Chemiker und Ingenieure in der Chemie und der Materialwissenschaft in vielen Industriezweigen. Geeignet ist der Band auch für Vorlesungen auf Doktorandenniveau.
