Particle Science and Engineering - Proceedings of UK-China International Particle Technology Forum IV

Discussing the state of the art research in particle science and technology and their roles in the environment, this book will contain a selection of high quality papers from the UK-China International Particle Technology Forum IV held in Shanghai. Coverage includes a wide range of topics - synthesis and crystallisation, characterisation and measurement across length scales, multi-scale modelling and simulation, processing and handling of particulate system, nanoparticle technology and particle mechanics - making this a valuable reference for the recent advances and future research directions in the field and related fields. With applications in emerging areas, it will integrate different perspectives of particle science and technology to help the understanding of the fundamentals of particle systems for scientists and engineers in the fields of environmental science, energy and modelling.Table of ContentPreparation of γ-Al2O3 Nanoparticles by Mechano-chemical and Sonochemical Reaction; Analysis of Squeeze Flow of a Bi-viscosity Fluid between Two Rigid Spheres; Preparation and Characteristics of LaXSr1-XCoO3 as Cathode Catalysts for Microbial Fuel Cell; Simulation of Binary Groups of Particles with a Sub-grid Scale Model in a Riser; Validation of powder properties measured by a rotational shear cell; Three-dimensional Simulation of the Filtration Process of Polydisperse Particulate Matter by Fibrous Filter; Study on Defocused Image Processing Method for Particle Size Measurement; Preparation and Performance of Pani/Mwnt Composite Films Anode for Microbial Fuel Cell; Collection of Nano-TiO2 Aerosol by Using a Novel Wet Sampler; Investigation of Droplet Coalescence and Oil-Water Separation Characteristics of Insulated Electrode in Electric Dehydrator; Coalescence and Moving Characteristics of Droplets Under Pulsed DC Electric Field; Application of Ultrasonic Method on Particle Concentration in Gas-Liquid Two-Phase Flow; Numerical Solution of Dynamics of PM10 Subjected to Standing-Wave Acoustic Field; Discharge Analysis of an Industrial Batch Rotating Drum; A Comprehensive Technology of Particle Characterization That Automatically Measure Particle Size, Shape and Chemical Identity in One Single Platform; Air Current Segregation In Industrial Silos – A Design Challenge for Filters in the Air Extraction System; A Comparative Study on the Influence of Particle Size on the Turbulence Characteristics within Gas-Solids Pneumatic Flows Using an Electrostatic Sensor and CFD-DEM Coupled Simulation; Image Visualization of Micro-structures in the Entrainment of Jet Flow by using SFSEI Method; Subject IndexDiscussing the state of the art research in particle science and technology and their roles in the environment, this book will contain a selection of high quality papers from the UK-China International Particle Technology Forum IV held in Shanghai.
