Construction has been an industry characterised by disputes, fierce competitiveness and fragmentation – all major obstacles to development. Now, however, a relationship-based approach to project procurement, through partnering and alliancing, aims to bring about a fundamental change. This book addresses the critical relationship issues for a more collaborative and sustainable construction industry. It looks at how project procurement and project ...
A recent construction project in Singapore involved a Russian plant, a Japanese management team, Australian and Italian engineers, Thai steel workers and a labour force from throughout Asia … The recent growth explosion of multi-nationals and the lowering of trade barriers is pushing the globalization of construction at a startling pace. Mark Mawhinney has brought together for the first time, advice, information and evidence on this developing a ...
Die Montage verfahrenstechnischer Anlagen stellt ein Aufgabengebiet dar, in dem sich die Erfordernisse je nach Randbedingungen standig andern. Selbst der Aufbau derselben Anlage an verschiedenen Standorten unterscheidet sich im Montageablauf und in den Erfordernissen, die der Standort mit sich bringt. In der Kette vom Beginn der Anlagenplanung bis zur Inbetriebnahme ist die Montage eines der letzten Glieder. Das bedeutet einerseits, dass die Puf ...
Nur in Ausnahmefallen lassen sich technische Anlagen fur neue Produktionsverfahren der chemischen Industrie an Hand von Literaturdaten und rechnerischer Simulation entwickeln und auslegen. Der ubliche Weg des Scale-up fuhrt uber den Laborversuch und den anschlie?enden Aufbau einer Technikumsanlage zur technischen Gro?anlage. Die Miniplanttechnik ermoglicht die Entwicklung technischer Anlagen in nur einem Schritt vom Labor zur funktionierenden Gr ...
Without catalysts industrial production, research and environmental technology would all be unthinkable. Although 80% of all large-scale industrial processes are catalytic, many scientists and engineers limit themselves to proceeding on empirical lines. They frequently do not possess the basic knowledge for a systematic development and application of catalysts. This book treats both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis – whereby special empha ...
This volume from the successful Macromolecular Symposia series presents the contributions from the IUPAC-sponsored International Symposium on «Radical Polymerization: Kinetics and Mechanism», held in Il Ciocco, Italy, in September, 2006. This was the fourth within the series of so-called SML conferences, which are the major scientific forum for addressing kinetic and mechanistic aspects of free-radical polymerization and controlled radical polym ...
This first comprehensive treatment of the intertwined roles of micro-instrumentation, high throughput experimentation and process intensification as valuable tools for process analytical technology covers both industrial as well as academic aspects. First class editors and authors from top companies and universities provide interdisciplinary coverage ranging from chemistry and analytics to process design and engineering, supported throughout by ...
Dieses Buch vermittelt wichtiges Fachwissen der Okobiotechnologie fur die Vermeidung von Fehlplanung und unnotigen Folgekosten beim Bau und Betrieb von Klar- und Abwasserbehandlungsanlagen. Fur Verfahrenstechniker immer wichtiger werdende Modellrechnungen und Simulationsmethoden fur die Abwasserreinigung werden hier didaktisch aufgearbeitet und prasentiert. Die Autoren schlagen eine Brucke zwischen den biologisch-chemischen und verfahrenstechnis ...
This first book to concentrate on providing a concise, representative overview of polymer microencapsulation for novel organic coatings and all its chemical and engineering aspects collates the literature hitherto spread out among journals in various disciplines. It covers all the important methods for carrying out microencapsulations, including in situ polymerization, phase separation, emulsification, grinding and spray drying. The result is a ...
