Book Description
Die Erstauflage von “Aerosol Technology” erschien bereits 1982, als die Aerosolwissenschaft noch in den Kinderschuhen steckte. Seither hat umfangreiche Forschung und Entwicklung in diesem Bereich zu einer Fülle neuer Erkenntisse und Anwendungen geführt. Diese komplett überarbeitete, erweiterte und aktualisierte 2. Auflage trägt diesen einschneidenden Veränderungen Rechnung. Neu hinzugekommen ist u.a. umfangreiche Information zu biologischen Aerosolen, Resuspension, Transportverlusten, atmosphärischen Aerosolen und deren Einfluß auf globale Klimaveränderungen sowie zu neuen Meßinstrumenten.

Editorial Reviews
From the Inside Flap
The #1 guide to aerosol science and technology -now better than ever
Since 1982, Aerosol Technology has been the text of choice among students and professionals who need to acquire a thorough working knowledge of modern aerosol theory and applications. Now revised to reflect the considerable advances that have been made over the past seventeen years across a broad spectrum of aerosol-related application areas – from occupational hygiene and biomedical technology to microelectronics and pollution control -this new edition includes: * A chapter on bioaerosols * New sections on resuspension, transport losses, respiratory deposition models, and fractal characterization of particles * Expanded coverage of atmospheric aerosols, including background aerosols and urban aerosols * A section on the impact of aerosols on global warming and ozone depletion.
Aerosol Technology, Second Edition also features dozens of new, fully worked examples drawn from a wide range of industrial and research settings, plus new chapter-end practice problems to help readers master the material quickly.
