Mass transfer is one of the most important phenomena in the physical sciences, commonly studied and researched in a range of fields. This book seeks to showcase some of the most exciting recent developments in the study and applications of mass transfer. In the first part, new work in the study of mass transfer in sustainable energy and environmental modelling is presented. The contributors discuss their research findings on topics including mass transfer effects on an exponentially stretching surface in porous media, and key aspects of the aqueous sorption process in fixed beds. In the second part, mass transfer in multiphase systems is explored through topics including the packed bed drying of shrinking particles and mass transfer in bioreactors. Finally, part three explores more advanced issues. Here, the authors offer their research findings on innovative aspects including measurement of liquid velocity and distribution in a packed bed, differential scanning calorimetry for the study of mass transfer within emulsions, and an overview of mass transfer as the basic dynamic in purification processes. The book gathers carefully selected expert research from across the globe to give a truly diverse and forward-looking account of the state of the field.
