Foundations and Industrial Applications of Microwave and Radio Frequency Fields: Physical and Chemical Processes

Essentially addressing microwave heating, drying, vaporization and electromagnetic treatment techniques, this text provides the theoretical background necessary for understanding electromagnetic radiation interaction with materials.
This book addresses microwave heating, drying, vaporization and electromagnetic treatment techniques. This technology is applied in the mineral, textile, paper, ceramic, chemical and--last but not least--food industries. The authors have made use of fundamental work of chemical and microwave spectroscopists. They also deal with radio frequency applications, which is unique.
