Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology 5th Ed 2007 ISO

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING FROM ORIGINAL UPLOADERS:
The original, printed work consists of 27 volumes, with each
volume counting ~850 pages. thus, the official total page number
is 22950 pages. on the other hand, when you count the PDF-pages
on this CD+R, you will find 1252 articles totalling 33158 pages.
The creation date of this KO5PDF release is September 2007,
so it is a version valid for the entire following year.
that's why the disc name is chosen "KO5PDF2008", standing for
'KO5PDF Release 2008 (c)2007 TEAM JWSiSO'.
we at TEAM JWSiSO hereby guarantee that this disc is complete and
has no errors or other inadequacies!
To *speedily* find the PDF-page with your desired content, simply
open the PDF-index file "index.pdx" with your Adobe Reader 6.0+
and do a full-text search on your keyword, e.g. "butadiene".
this PDF-index may replace the index-PDF for the *printed* volumes
which is freely available for download and also included on the CD.
that index-PDF is less useful for the KO5PDF releases because
they refer to explicit page numbers within the printed volumes.
even browsing thru the lengthy index-PDF is pretty useless.

Description
The fifth edition of the Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology builds upon the solid foundation of the previous editions, which have proven to be a mainstay for chemists, biochemists, and engineers at academic, industrial, and government institutions since publication of the first edition in 1949.
The new edition includes necessary adjustments and modernisation of the content to reflect changes and developments in chemical technology. Presenting a wide scope of articles on chemical substances, properties, manufacturing, and uses; on industrial processes, unit operations in chemical engineering; and on fundamentals and scientific subjects related to the field.
The Encyclopedia describes established technology along with cutting edge topics of interest in the wide field of chemical technology, whilst uniquely providing the necessary perspective and insight into pertinent aspects, rather than merely presenting information.
* Set begins publication in January 2004
* Over 1000 articles
* More than 600 new or updated articles
* 27 volumes
Reviews from the previous edition:
"The most indispensable reference in the English language on all aspects of chemical technology...the best reference of its kind". --Chemical Engineering News, 1992
"Overall, ECT is well written and cleanly edited, and no library claiming to be a useful resource for chemical engineering professionals should be without it." --Nicholas Basta, Chemical Engineering, December 1992
