Authored
by Michael Schorr and Benjamin Valdez, the book covers critical applications of
phosphoric acid in several sectors, particularly in the production of phosphatic
fertilizers, metal surface treatments, and in the food and beverages industry.
It now forms a staple part in many industrial applications, such as steel
pickling, improved adhesion of paint, and preventing iron sedimentation from
becoming suspended in foods and beverages, such as cola. It addresses several
problems experienced in phosphoric acid industries-though, not exhaustive, it
covers some of the most significant ones: environmental concerns and supply
chain issues among others; technological inefficiencies are included in this
study. The book also presents practical solutions to the challenges identified,
which makes it a high resource for professionals and researchers in these
industries. Dealing with both the technical and industrial point of view
concerning the applications and problems related to the production of phosphoric
acid, this book contributes towards a better understanding of its applications
and towards improved practice in synthesis and use.

Monga, Paul Flowers, Klaus Theopold, William R. Robinson, and Richard Langley,
it is a fully comprehensive online resource for students and professionals in
chemical engineering who need to know the fundamental principles of inorganic
chemistry within their profession. The issues addressed include atomic
structure, chemical bonding, molecular geometry, and transition metal chemistry,
thus forming enough foundational knowledge to predict the behavior of inorganic
substances involved in the processes used in industry. Text also encompasses
coordination chemistry, electrochemistry and thermodynamics, therefore providing
readers with tools to apply concepts of inorganic chemistry to design solutions
for real engineering problems. Be it designing new materials or optimizing
industrial processes, this book is an indispensable resource for those
interested in how inorganic chemistry supports the application of chemical
engineering.
