Chemical, Biochemical, Engineering Thermodynamics

A modern, accessible, and applied approach to chemical thermodynamics.

This is a unique introductory textbook that covers all aspects of both chemical and bioprocess engineering and provides a thorough grounding in the fundamentals so that the background may be used in future work. Included are more than 400 proposed and solved exercises, each classified by its level of difficulty. Each chapter contains references and selected web pages to vividly illustrate examples. To aid the reader, each chapter is marked according to Bloom’s Taxonomy to indicate the level of attention given to each concept.

This book discusses the thermodynamic mechanism of MQL grinding with nano-biological lubricant from the force, heat, surface integrity, and micro-morphology.
