Volume 1 of the handbook reviews MR materials science, engineering and design. Initial sections review advanced and novel materials utilised in MRs. The volume concludes with a section detailing advanced modelling, simulation and optimisation techniques for MRs.Volume 2 of the handbook reviews reactor types and industrial applications. The opening section reviews selected types of membrane reactor and their integration in established industrial processes. The following sections then address applications in chemical and hydrogen production, transport, environmental engineering and biotechnology. Read more...
