A complete guide to slurries and slurry systems―fully updated for the latest advances

This thoroughly revised guide contains start-to-finish coverage of slurry systems--from fundamentals and fluid mechanics to pump design and materials selection. Written by a recognized expert in the field, Slurry Systems Handbook, Second Edition clearly explains the components, dynamics, and design of slurry systems for many applications, including mineral processing, nuclear waste processing, extra heavy oil upgrade, mineral concentrate transport, tailings systems and metal melting. You will get real-world examples, solved problems, and current codes as well as guidelines for conducting feasibility studies and hands-on operating procedures.

Coverage includes:

  • General concepts of slurry flows
  • Multi-species and stratified heterogeneous flows
  • Non-Newtonian slurry flows
  • Open channel and cascade slurry flows
  • Slurry Hammer and Transients in closed and open channels
  • Centrifugal and positive displacement slurry pumps
  • Long distance slurry pipelines by commodity such as coal, copper, phosphate or gold
  • Oil sand extraction
  • Slurry reactors, hydrocracking and heat transfer
  • Hydrocarbon and hydrate-based slurry pipelines
  • Semi-solid metals casting
  • Tailings systems, paste backfilling
  • Slurry flows for nuclear waste processing
  • De-silting hydroelectric reservoirs
