Preface
Thirty years ago the first edition of this book was published in German. The concept of the work – at that time printed in leaden letters – was a cheap information source for students. Today our world is characterized by high-speed developments and more principal approaches in comparison to the past. Therefore, the authors put the question: Is it reasonable in the Internet age to write scientific books and – if yes – for whom and in which language? This book is the answer to these questions. We hope that students as well as experienced engineers and scientists may find access to the representation of the topic and may gain from the lecture of the work. According to the concept of the book it is assumed that the book is read from the beginning to the end. However, we know very well that there are no such readers. The book may be a helpful tool for beginners and experts for consulting and for deepening their knowledge. In spite of the fact that the concept of a large number of unit operations is widely abandoned, the overall arrangement of the book corresponds to this structure because there are not only intelligent and abstractively thinking readers but also others with a more practical approach to problems of chemical engineering. The contents of this book are too extensive for
