Description: This book introduces the basic concepts of chemical engineering plant design and operation at a level understandable to graduate chemists and other scientists. It is aimed particularly at industrial chemists who find themselves working on chemical engineering-type unit operations. It is intended to be a “dip-in” reference, giving guidance on how to, for instance, design pumps, how to measure key process variables and how to use these to calculate the essential design parameters, such as heat and mass transfer coefficients, required for the design (and analysis) of typical unit operations (e.g. heat exchangers, distillation columns, reactors). Other issues, such as safety, project economic appraisal and process control are also covered. The book avoids derivations from first principles, simply providing the necessary equations and explaining and demonstrating their use.

Chemical Sciences Roundtable, National Research Council, National Academy of Sciences, "Are Chemical Journals Too Expensive and Inaccessible?: A Workshop Summary to the Chemical Sciences Roundtable"
Publisher: National Academy Press 2005
44 Pages
ISBN: 0309095905






On October 25-26, 2005, the Chemical Sciences Roundtable held a workshop to explore issues involving those who use and contribute to chemical literature, as well as those who publish and disseminate chemical journals. As a follow-up to the workshop, a summary was written to capture the presentations and discussions that occurred during the workshop. As a forum to discuss chemistry journals within the larger context of scientific, technical and medical journal publishing, the workshop covered whether chemists and chemical engineers have unique journal needs and, if so, whether these needs are being met in the current journal publishing environment. Workshop participants also tackled how open access publishing might be applied to the chemical literature, such as to provide authors more freedom to distribute their articles after publication and allowing free access to chemical literature archives.

E. C. M. Chen, E. S. D. Chen, "The Electron Capture Detector & Thermal Electron Reactions"
Publisher: Wiley-Interscience
2002-06-15 | 412 Pages 
ISBN: 0471326224









Covers the general theory and practice of using an Electron Capture Detector (ECD) to study reactions of thermal electrons with molecules

In 1897, J. J. Thompson "discovered" the electron. Around the same time, Mikhail Semenovich Tswett presented a lecture on his novel method of dynamic adsorption analysis, soon known as chromatography. These achievements laid the groundwork for James Lovelock, who fifty years later observed the perturbation of ion currents by the reactions of thermal electrons with molecules. Lovelock’s invention of the Electron Capture Detector (ECD) created an instrument for measuring the properties of these compounds and the reactions involved.

Today, with the ECD in widespread use and many molecular affinities and rate constants for thermal electron attachment measured, it is an appropriate time to review the techniques for studying the reactions of thermal electrons with molecules. The Electron Capture Detector and the Study of Reactions with Thermal Electrons provides just such a timely review, as well as a thorough evaluation of the results attained thus far. In addition, this text:

* Summarizes other methods for studying reactions of thermal electrons with molecules
* Reviews electron affinities and thermodynamic and kinetic parameters of atoms, small molecules, and large organic molecules obtained using various techniques
* Describes ECD applications in analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, and biochemistry
* Provides an Appendix with electron affinities in tabular form

With coverage ranging from the history of the electron to definitions and nomenclature, experimental procedures, and modern applications, the scope of this text is greater than any other available book on the subject of negative ions. Professionals and graduate students in analytical, physical, and environmental chemistry can now turn to The Electron Capture Detector and the Study of Reactions with Thermal Electrons for a comprehensive guide to the theory and practice of ECD.

Committee on Revealing Chemistry through Advanced Chemical Imaging, National Research Council, "Visualizing Chemistry: The Progress and Promise of Advanced Chemical Imaging "
Publisher: National Academy Press  2006
220 Pages
ISBN: 0309097223






Scientists and engineers have long relied on the power of imaging techniques to help see objects invisible to the naked eye, and thus, to advance scientific knowledge. These experts are constantly pushing the limits of technology in pursuit of chemical imaging—the ability to visualize molecular structures and chemical composition in time and space as actual events unfold—from the smallest dimension of a biological system to the widest expanse of a distant galaxy. Chemical imaging has a variety of applications for almost every facet of our daily lives, ranging from medical diagnosis and treatment to the study and design of material properties in new products. In addition to highlighting advances in chemical imaging that could have the greatest impact on critical problems in science and technology, Visualizing Chemistry reviews the current state of chemical imaging technology, identifies promising future developments and their applications, and suggests a research and educational agenda to enable breakthrough improvements.

Ole G. Mouritsen, "Life - As a Matter of Fat"
Publisher: Springer | 2004-11-30 | 159 Pages | ISBN: 3540232486 | PDF | 3 MB









To most people, fats are something viscious that are dangerous to our health and well-being and therefore should be avoided. Some people know that fats are essential ingredients of the diet and futhermore provide for tasty meals. Others acknowledge that certain fats like cholesterol are required for the body`s production of important hormones, such as sex hormones, as well as vitamin D and the bile you need in your stomach to break down the food. Many of us appreciate that the usaturated fats present in fish food provide for good health and longevity. However, few realize that fats are as important for life as proteins and genes. And probably very few people know that in terms of mass, fat is the most important part of our brain and the second most important of all other soft tissue.

The present book presents a multi-disciplinary perspective on the physics of life and the particular role played by fats in the form of lipids and the lipid-bilayer component of cell membranes. The book is aimed at undergraduate students and young research workers within physics, chemistry, biochemistry, molecular biology, nutrition, as well as pharmaceutical and biomedical sciences. The emphasis is on the physical properties of the lipid membrane seem as a soft and molecularly structured interface. By combining and synthesizing insights obtained from a variety of recent studies, an attempt is made to clarify what membrane structure is and how it can be quantitatively described. Furthermore, it is shown how lipid membrane structure and organization can control functional properties of membranes. The strategy of the book is to provide a bridge between, on the one side the microscopic world of membranes, i.e. the world of the molecules, and on the other side the macroscopic world, i.e. the world as we observe and sense it. This involves unnraveling the organizational principles wich govern the many types of structure that arise on length scales from the size of the individual molecule, across molecular assemblies of proteins and lipid domains in the range of nanometers, to the meso-and macroscopic of the whole cells.

A large number of mysteries concerning the role of fats and lipids for life remain unresoveld. Some of the more obvious mysteries involve the role of lipids in evolution, the need of lipid diversity for membrande funcion, the physical principles that control cell signaling by lipid, and the relatinships between nutrition and health. Many more mysteries are likely to turn up as we realize how life is a matter of fat.
