The "Handbook of Soap Manufacture" by W. H. Simmons and H. A. Appleton is an
inclusive guide that has been dedicated to industry workers and newcomer
stakeholders interested in soap production. It contains the constitution of oils
and fats, discussing their saponification processes, while describing raw
materials for soapmaking. It consists of practical subjects such as bleaching
and processing of ingredients, different types of soaps, perfume incorporation,
glycerine production, glycerine purification, analysis of raw materials, etc.
Therefore, facilitating very complex information, this book can simply be said
to be the precious gold of any individual who wishes to gain a thorough
understanding of the soap industry along with production techniques.
It is a treasure of comprehensive
information put together by Bharath Institute of Science and Technology, for
students pursuing a career in engineering studies. It deals with all the major
issues: water technology, polymers, electrochemistry, corrosion and control and
ways to nonconventional energy sources. The course content is designed to
clearly depict the practical applications of chemistry in engineering contexts.
This resource will be designed with concise explanations and relevant examples
to enhance students' understanding of chemical principles and their preparation
to face challenges both in the academic and professional spheres.

manuals and the like generally contain little more than mere descriptions of
technical methods of analysis, and explanations of the underlying chemical
principles or of their applications are seldom attempted. It is evident that
such books can be of very little help to students. The mechanism of the
reactions involved in analytical methods is by no means so clear that
explanation is unnecessary, since a student usually begins technical analysis at
a comparatively early stage in his course. This book is a solution for all these
difficulties.The author, as lecturer in the Darmstadt Technical School, knows
from his long experience that it is just the emphasis laid upon the technical
application of an analysis which deepens the student's knowledge and
understanding of chemical processes.
