This Solutions Manual gives complete solutions of all the practice problems given at the end of each chapter (total of 16 chapters) of the text INTRODUCTION TO ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF EQUILIBRIUM STAGED SEPARATION PROCESSES. For the convenience of the readers, the practice problems given in the text have been restated before providing the solution.

This book demonstrates how understanding rheological behavior is crucial to process design and materials development for a wide variety of commercial and industrial applications. It examines the principles and equations that govern the rheology of particulate dispersions and of two-phase solid composites. The author introduces definitions and important concepts such as fluid/interfacial mechanics, bulk stress, and dipole strength. Then he analyzes the rheology of dispersions for rigid and nonrigid particles. The final chapters address elastic properties of particle- and fiber-reinforced solid composites and discuss the dynamic viscoelastic behavior of particulate dispersions and composites.
