Ion Exchange Technology I, 2012 Theory and Materials

Ion-exchange Technology I: Theory and Materials describes the theoretical principles of ion-exchange processes.

More specifically, this volume focuses on the synthesis, characterization, and modelling of ion-exchange materials and their associated kinetics and equilibria.

This title is a highly valuable source not only to postgraduate students and researchers but also to industrial R&D specialists in chemistry, chemical, and biochemical technology as well as to engineers and industrialists.
