Handling of powders and bulk solids is a critical industrial technology, yet is very seldom seen on the curricula of chemistry or chemical engineering departments. Characterisation of Bulk Solids provides an understanding of the importance, techniques and industrial application of particulate materials characterisation. Readers will gain a better able to diagnose solids handling and processing problems in industry, and to deal with experts and equipment suppliers from an informed standpoint. Characterisation of Bulk Solids is directed at chemical engineers, scientists and technologists working with powdered materials in a broad spectrum of industries, such as agrochemicals, bulk and fine chemicals, good processing, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and plastics and polymers.
