The use of alternative energy forms and transfer mechanisms is one of the key approaches of process intensification. In recent years, significant amounts of research have been carried out in developing chemical processing technologies enhanced by plasma, electric and magnetic fields, electromagnetic and ultra-sound waves and high gravity fields. Discussing the broad impact of alternative energy transfer technologies on reactions, separations and materials synthesis, this book reports on recent breakthrough results in various application areas. It provides a comprehensive overview of the current developments in the field. The book enables industrialists, academics and postgraduates in alternative-energy based processing to see the potential of alternative energies for green chemistry and sustainability of chemical manufacturing.

Giới thiệu về tác giả
Full Professor at Warsaw University of Technology, Poland, former Chair of Process Intensification at Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands, and former Director of TU Delft Process Technology Institute. With more than 40 years of industrial and academic research experience he is author of numerous scientific publications on process intensification, chemical reaction engineering and industrial catalysis. He is principal author and co-editor of the world’s first book on Process Intensification.
Prof. Stankiewicz is Editor-in-Chief of Chemical and Process Engineering: New Frontiers (Polish Academy of Sciences) and Series Editor of the Green Chemistry Books Series (Royal Society of Chemistry). He was founder and first Chairman of the Working Party on Process Intensification at the European Federation of Chemical Engineering. He was also founder and Chairman the Board of the European Process Intensification Centre (EUROPIC).
Current research interests of Prof. Stankiewicz focus on intensification of catalytic processes using renewable electricity-based energy fields. The research in that area has brought him prestigious Advanced Investigator Grant from the European Research Council.
