Summary

Still the Most Complete, Up-To-Date, and Reliable Reference in the Field

Drying is a highly energy-intensive operation and is encountered in nearly all industrial sectors. With rising energy costs and consumer demands for higher quality dried products, it is increasingly important to be aware of the latest developments in industrial drying technologies. For two decades, Mujumdar’s industry-standard Handbook of Industrial Drying has been the quintessential source of state-of-the-art information in the field, and this third edition is no exception.

New in the Third Edition

Covering everything from the fundamentals of drying to the latest dryer types, nearly two-thirds of this edition comprises new material at the vanguard of research and industrial practice. In addition to several rewritten and many more revised chapters, new chapters cover such topics as:

  • Spreadsheet-aided dryer design
  • Indirect and pneumatic drying
  • Drying of fish and seafood, grain, herbal medicines, and tea
  • Drying of nanosize products, enzymes, and textiles
  • Dewatering and drying of wastewater treatment sludge
  • Heat pump drying and industrial crystallization
  • Solid–liquid separation for pretreatment

Providing important data along with the experience, insight, and practical know-how contributed by experts from around the world, the Handbook of Industrial Drying, Third Edition remains the definitive reference to the complete spectrum of current and emerging industrial drying technologies.
