A complete guide to slurries and slurry systems―fully updated for the latest advances
This thoroughly revised guide contains start-to-finish coverage of slurry systems—from fundamentals and fluid mechanics to pump design and materials selection. Written by a recognized expert in the field, Slurry Systems Handbook, Second Edition clearly explains the components, dynamics, and design of slurry systems for many applications, including mineral processing, nuclear waste processing, extra heavy oil upgrade, mineral concentrate transport, tailings systems and metal melting. You will get real-world examples, solved problems, and current codes as well as guidelines for conducting feasibility studies and hands-on operating procedures.
Coverage includes:
General concepts of slurry flows
Multi-species and stratified heterogeneous flows
Non-Newtonian slurry flows
Open channel and cascade slurry flows
Slurry Hammer and Transients in closed and open channels
Centrifugal and positive displacement slurry pumps
Long distance slurry pipelines by commodity such as coal, copper, phosphate or gold
