  abstract     = {{<p>Connect fundamental HPH principles directly to industrial process optimisation</p><p>Industrial high-pressure homogenisers have operated for over a <br>
century, yet mechanistic understanding has only recently emerged. <i>High-Pressure Homogenisation</i><br>
 connects these fundamental insights with practical applications in <br>
food, pharmaceutical, petroleum, and chemical processing. Written by <br>
Andreas Håkansson, who has authored more than 70 peer-reviewed papers on<br>
 emulsification devices, this reference bridges valve hydrodynamics <br>
theory with scale-up, process design, and optimisation strategies. </p><p>The<br>
 book progresses through four major sections: HPH valve hydrodynamics <br>
examining turbulence, cavitation, elongational shear, and impingement; <br>
emulsion drop breakup with laboratory-to-production scale-up guidance; <br>
cell, particle, and fiber processing discussions; and industrial <br>
application overviews with operating parameter guidelines. Computational<br>
 fluid dynamics visualisations clarify complex phenomena throughout each<br>
 section‘s detailed case studies. </p><p>Readers will also find: </p>Detailed<br>
 analysis of turbulence, cavitation, elongational shear, wear, and <br>
impingement phenomena across three distinct HPH valve regionsPractical<br>
 guidance on scaling up from laboratory to production-scale homogenisers<br>
 with specific valve design adoption strategies for industryCase<br>
 studies thoroughly presented and discussed in each chapter to provide <br>
an in-depth industrial perspective on real-world applicationsSupporting<br>
 information on engineering mathematics, computational fluid dynamics, <br>
fluid mechanics, and colloidal science as necessary for understandingGuidelines<br>
 for operating parameters across major industrial applications including<br>
 processing line placement and performance optimisation strategies <p><i>High-Pressure Homogenisation</i><br>
 serves chemists, biochemists, protein chemists, food chemists, and <br>
chemical engineers who require mechanistic understanding of HPH <br>
processes. This reference enables professionals to design better <br>
processes, scale up applications more effectively, and reduce the energy<br>
 costs associated with industrial homogenisation operations.</p><p/>}},
