- Fits each chemical process into a greater whole, describing the product, the by-product, and the pollution footprint
- Each chapter comprises: pollution production, pollution control, recycling, and by-product use
- Shows practices which industry has made strides to improve or 'green' specific chemical processes
- Addresses a conundrum: Academics lacking appreciation of industrial concerns and industrial chemists blaming academics for not teaching applied chemistry
- Important material for all students considering a chemical career
Aims and Scope
Industrial Chemistry is a book that brings the subject matter of a chemistry curriculum to life. It examines the major chemistry performed by industry and looks at how such chemical processes affect our lives. In addition, as each process is presented and examined, there is a significant discussion dedicated on the by-products, pollution, necessary waste generated, and attempts to make each process more ecologically friendly, or "greener." It bridges the divide between the basic chemistry that students learn in the undergraduate curriculum, and the broader chemical processes that are used in real life.
