Slurry Systems Handbook - $129.95

A COMPLETE GUIDE TO SLURRIES AND SLURRY SYSTEMS
Here is expert, comprehensive coverage of slurries
and slurry systems, covering everything from fluid mechanics and soil
classification, to pipeline, plant and pump design and materials selection
criteria for wear resistance.
This unique handbook is logically divided into
two sections: the first covers the hydraulics of slurry flows and includes
information on the principles of classifying soils, mixing with water, design
of pipelines from coarse to very fine slurries, as Newtonian and Non-Newtonian
flows.
In a very innovative approach, the mathematics
of flow of slurry in open channels, drop boxes and cascades is presented.
The reader is guided through those complex
flows by numerous solved problems in SI and USCS units.
The second section is devoted to the equipment
used to make and pump slurries, and contains data on rock crushing, milling,
and grinding, separation, classification, filtering, and thickening.
The author also delves into the specific
aspects of the design of slurry pumps, the selection of materials for wear
resistance.
The book progresses with practical examples of
operating slurry pipelines, appropriate codes and guidelines to conduct
feasibility studies for slurry concentrate or tailings disposal systems. |
