Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Since the publication of the first edition of Canada, and Australia have increased teach Handbook of Powder Science and Technology, ing, research, and training activities in areas the field of powder science and technology has related to particle science and technology. gained broader recognition and its various ar In addition, it is worth mentioning the many eas of interest have become more defined and books and monographs that have been pub focused. Research and application activities lished on specific areas of particle, powder, related to particle technology have increased and particle fluid by professional publishers, globally in academia, industry, and research technical societies and university presses. Also, institutions. During the last decade, many to date, there are many career development groups, with various scientific, technical, and courses given by specialists and universities on engineering backgrounds have been founded various facets of powder science and technol to study, apply, and promote interest in areas ogy.
