Overview

"This volume documents the proceedings of the symposium entitled ""Advances in Crystal Growth Inhibition Technologies"" sponsored by the Division of Colloid and Surface Chemistry of the American Chemical Society. The symposium was held in New Orleans, on August 22--26, 1999, at the 218th American Chemical Society National Meeting. A total of 27 papers was presented by a wide spectrum of scientists. There was a strong attendance by representatives from government, academia, and industrial research centres. The objective of the symposium was to discuss developments in crystal growth and inhibition processes. This book presents the outcome of this research and related topics. Moreover, the book delivers information to plant managers and formulators who would like to broaden and deepen their knowledge about processes involved in precipitation of sparingly soluble salts and learn more about the inhibitory aspects of various commercially available materials. Furthermore, experienced researchers will obtain fruitful and inspiring ideas from the easily accessible information about overlapping research areas, which will promote discoveries of new inhibitors (synthetic and/or natural) for the currently unmet challenges."
