    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Catalysis, which until recently had largely been limited to the production of large volume chemical, is now being increasingly used in the production of medium and small volume chemicals. Simultaneously, the role of process intensification in enhancing overall productivity is being increasingly recognised. This usually takes the form of reaction rate enhancement by extending known or emerging laboratory techniques to industrial scale production. Organic Synthesis Engineering describes the application of catalysis in its various forms in organic synthesis, and addresses both the chemical and engineering aspects of catalysts (particularly solid catalysts). It also outlines different techniques of reaction rate and/or selectivity enhancement - a feature not found in any existing books on reaction engineering.

    Long description:

    This book will formally launch "organic synthesis engineering" as a distinctive field in the armory of the reaction engineer. Its main theme revolves around two developments: catalysis and the role of process intensification in enhancing overall productivity. Each of these two subjects are becoming increasingly useful in organic synthesis engineering, especially in the production of medium and small volume chemicals and enhancing reaction rates by extending laboratory techniques, such as ultrasound, phase transfer catalysts, membrane reactor, and microwaves, to industrial scale production. This volume describes the applications of catalysis in organic synthesis and outlines different techniques of reaction rate and/or selectivity enhancement against a background of reaction engineering principles for both homogeneous and heterogeneous systems.

    Organic synthesis engineering is one of the most exciting and rapidly expanding fields of research and this book presents a state-of-the-art approach ... The breadth of coverage in this book makes it suitable for both chemists and chemical engineers.
