The primary emphasis of the book is for industrial applications and the primary audience is expected to be the practitioners of the art of fluidization, solids handling, and processing. It will be particularly beneficial for engineers who operate design plants where solids are handled, transported, and processed using fluidization technology. The book, however, can also be useful as a reference book for students, teachers, and managers who study the particle technology especially in the areas of application of fluidization technology and pneumatic transport.
