An exciting overview of the latest technologies in use within the chlorine industry is given in Modern Chlor-Alkali Technology Volume 7. International academic and industrial expertise is reported, with chapters ranging from the latest developments in membrane technology, diaphragm cell improvements, operating experiences and high current density operation of membrane cells to the removal of brine. Emphasis is also given to the vital issues of public awareness, environmental aspects and the need for good neighbour relations, with discussions on how to tackle public relations and the public perceptions of the industry. This volume, containing the most up-to-date information available on developments in chlorine technology, will be an essential read for researchers and postgraduates in industry and academe, or indeed for anyone who has contact with chlorine.
