Focusing on the application of membranes in an engineering context, this hands-on computational guide makes previously challenging problems routine. It formulates problems as systems of equations solved with MATLAB, encouraging active learning through worked examples and end-of-chapter problems. The detailed treatments of dead-end filtration include novel approaches to constant rate filtration and filtration with a centrifugal pump. The discussion of crossflow microfiltration includes the use of kinetic and force balance models. Comprehensive coverage of ultrafiltration and diafiltration processes employs both limiting flux and osmotic pressure models. The effect of fluid viscosity on the mass transfer coefficient is explored in detail, the effects of incomplete rejection on the design and analysis of ultrafiltration and diafiltration are analysed, and quantitative treatments of reverse osmosis and nanofiltration process analysis and design are explored. Includes a chapter dedicated to the modelling of membrane fouling.

After a school assignment challenges Dex to be whatever he wants, Dex decides he wants to be the WORLD'S BEST GREATEST EVER...at something. Filled with clever humor and touching insight, this chapter book graphic novel series follows Dex's misadventures as his attempts at the "coolest jobs" go awry. Dex Dingo isn't the BEST at anything. He's not the SMARTEST, the FUNNIEST, the STRONGEST, or the NICEST. But he wants to be the WORLD'S BEST GREATEST EVER...at something. So when Dex's teacher asks, "If you could be anything when you grow up, what would you be," Dex decides that he's going to be the best at one of the "best jobs ever." First on his list: an inventor Dex is able to create an awesome lab and an amazing team of nanobots, but things immediately go wrong when the nanobots start to multiply and form a gray goo that threatens to take over his neighborhood. It'll take some quick thinking and a rogue nanobot named Nono for Dex to stop the nanobots, save his best friend, and become the WORLD'S BEST GREATEST INVENTOR.
