Product Review
"It is this synergy between fundamental understanding and practical realization that is the message of this text. As a result, this book would be a worthwhile and welcomed addition to university and industrial libraries alike. There are many sacrifices involved in writing a book and sometimes the end product is not worth the effort consumed. That is not true in this case and the authors are to be congratulated for a job well doneThis book will be a library staple for many years to come and is a good investment for the curious and serious practitioners of chromatography, particularly those interested in process and large scale separations."
--Colin F. Poole, Analytical Chimica ACTA, Vol. 302
"I would add that this book is useful for all who want to have a general understanding of chromatography. There is a good balance between theory, modelling and experimental data and it contains a considerable amount of original work.They make an admirable effort to clearly describe the basics and the assumptions of the different models before writing the corresponding equations."

Product Description
The second edition of Fundamentals of Preparative and Nonlinear Chromatography is devoted to the basics of a new process of purification or extraction of chemicals or proteins widely used in the pharmaceutical industry and in preparative chromatography. This process permits the preparation of extremely pure compounds satisfying the requests of the US Food and Drug Administration. The book describes the basics of thermodynamics, mass transfer kinetics, and flow through porous media that are relevant to chromatography. It presents the models used in chromatography and their solutions, discusses the applications made, describes the different processes used, their numerous applications, and the methods of optimization of the experimental conditions of this process.
