Now an independent consultant and author, UK-based Comyns has had a varied career in academia, government, and industrial research laboratories over some four decades. His resource text provides users with concise descriptions of 3,000-plus processes in chemical technology that are known by special names that are not self-explanatory. The cross-referenced entries include key reference information, detailed explanation of how the process works, derivation of the name, historical background, date of introduction, patent information, worldwide usage, and end product. The second edition contains some 450 new entries reflecting recent trends in the global chemical industry away from petrochemicals and toward biochemical processes, with an emphasis on pollution prevention and waste disposal. Among these new entries are processes newly revealed under the Freedom of Information acts in the U.S. and UK. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
