Hosokawa Alpine has released a revised and completely updated version of its “Powder and Particle Processing“ handbook first published in 1991. Over a total of 270 pages, the handbook gives process engi-neers and engineers from all walks of industry the opportunity of informing themselves about cost-effective solutions at an early stage of production planning. After an introduction devoted to the over 100-year-old Augsburg company, the first part of the handbook is dedicated to the vast range of process solutions available for the chemicals, minerals, metals, pharmaceuticals, food and recycling sectors. In the second part, the system components engineered and manufactured by Alpine in Germany are presented, and their operating principles, applications and features are addressed. The individual modules of the process-specific automation technology by Hosokawa Alpine are also described, and one section is dedicated to particle design and the systems for producing new types of functional materials in the nanometre range. The informative compendium is augmented by a wealth of technical information and is rounded off by a description of the services offered by Alpine, which range from consultancy and engineering, trials and project planning to commissioning, training and maintenance.
