The branch of science which deals with the handling and processing of particles and powders is termed as particle technology. It deals with the production, modification, handling and usage of a broad range of particulate materials. These particles can be wet or dry, as well as vary in size from nanometers to centimeters. Some of the major areas of study associated with particle technology are the behavior of solids in bulk, separation of particles through the processes such as tabling, magnetic separation and sieving, and particle size analysis. It is also closely related to the field of mineral processing and petrochemical industry. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of particle technology which will be crucial for the progress of this field in the future. Also included herein is a detailed explanation of the various concepts and applications of this field. This book will also provide interesting topics for research which interested readers can take up.
