Download or read book Microwaves and Metals written by Manoj Gupta and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-02-26 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using microwaves to treat metal-based materials is rapidly emerging as an energy-efficient tool to interact with metals for a number of processes such as sintering, melting, brazing, carburizing and annealing. Microwaves can sinter a wide variety of metal compacts with comparable or enhanced end properties, while at the same time delivering tremendous energy savings over conventional sintering. Microwave processes are therefore gaining increasing attention and adoption in both academia and industry. Gupta and Wong have written this comprehensive text to introduce readers to the world of microwaves and the interaction of microwaves with metals and metals-based formulations. The authors have combined numerous research results from a wide range of sources alongside their own work in the field. Also included are overviews of microwave heating of other non-metal materials and the equipment used for microwave-assisted metallurgy. With microwave techniques poised for widespread adoption, Microwaves and Metals is an essential text for all metallurgists and materials engineers. Provides a thorough grounding in microwave fundamentals and their application to metals processing Informs readers of the latest developments in the field Presents a convenient single source for all aspects of microwave processing of metals and materials Contains liberal illustration to compare and benchmark research results Introduces all the necessary equipment, preparing readers for real-world practice Microwaves and Metals is ideal for a post-graduate or advanced undergraduate course in materials science or metallurgy. Materials and metallurgical engineers in industry, who are keen on cheaper, faster techniques, will also benefit from this book.

Book excerpt: The book details sources of thermal energy, methods of capture, and applications. It describes the basics of thermal energy, including measuring thermal energy, laws of thermodynamics that govern its use and transformation, modes of thermal energy, conventional processes, devices and materials, and the methods by which it is transferred. It covers 8 sources of thermal energy: combustion, fusion (solar) fission (nuclear), geothermal, microwave, plasma, waste heat, and thermal energy storage. In each case, the methods of production and capture and its uses are described in detail. It also discusses novel processes and devices used to improve transfer and transformation processes.
Download or read book Microwave Treatment of Organic Contaminated Soil written by Suning Fan and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of microwave technology to treat hazardous wastes has been in progress at NJIT for the past three years. The initial stages of this program have focused on determining the' breadth of hazardous waste problems that are amenable to microwave technology applications. Benchscale studies have shown the following processes are technically possible: a. It is possible to steam strip organic volatiles from soil; b. Volatiles can be destroyed by impact upon lossy so lids c. Heavy metal ions can be immobilized in soil; d. It is possible to regenerate GAC on-site. e. It is possible to pyrolyze polyarmotic compounds in soil in-site, and, thereby, effect decontamination. In this thesis, it has been shown that a relatively nonvolatile compound like naphthalene can be steam-stripped from soil; that the incident microwave energy penetrates the soil; that for volatile compounds are difficult to quantify effects; that in a comparison of microwave to incineration based upon economic and other considerations. It is concluded that microwave can play an potentially significant role in the clean up at contaminated soil.
