Understand a key tool for optimizing an industrial process Process gas chromatography is a method used to separate and analyze chemical compounds in an industrial process. First established in the middle of the twentieth century, it aims to return analytical results rapidly enough that they can be used to optimized a fluid processing plant. It is a complex process which demands meticulous training of process gas chromatograph engineers and operators. Process Gas Chromatography: Advanced Design and Troubleshooting offers an essential companion volume to the author's earlier Process Gas Chromatographs: Fundamentals, Design and Implementation. It builds on the previous volume's foundation to offer a full understanding of how PGC technology can be optimized and applied to specific processes. Focused on advanced principles and practical methods, it's a must-own for process engineers at any professional stage. Process Gas Chromatography readers will also find: Extensive troubleshooting assistance including many test sequences for diagnosing and correcting malfunctions Coverage of the theory required to improve reliability and accuracy of PGC methods A detailed summary and self-assessment questions accompanying each standalone chapter Process Gas Chromatography is ideal for end-user process analyzer engineers, applications chemists, maintenance personnel, and troubleshooters working in the fluid processing industries.

Understand new modes of analysing metabolomic data Metabolomics is the study of metabolites, small molecules and chemical substrates within cells or larger structures which collectively make up the metabolome. The field of metabolomics stands to benefit enormously from chemometrics, an approach which brings advanced statistical techniques to bear on data of this kind. Data Analysis and Chemometrics for Metabolomics constitutes an accessible introduction to chemometric techniques and their applications in the field of metabolomics. Thoroughly and accessibly written by a leading expert in chemometrics, and printed in full-colour, it brings robust data analysis into conversation with the metabolomic field to the immense benefit of practitioners. Data Analysis and Chemometrics for Metabolomics readers will also find: Statistical insights into the nature of metabolomic hypothesis testing, validation, and more All metabolomics data sets from the book on a companion website Case studies from human, animal, plant and bacterial biology Data Analysis and Chemometrics for Metabolomics is ideal for practitioners in the life sciences, clinical sciences and chemistry, as well as metabolomics researchers or developers of research instruments looking to apply cutting-edge analytical techniques, and statisticians developing methods to design experiments and analyse large datasets of clinical and biological origin.

Forensic Skeletal Trauma provides forensic practitioners with an illustrated manual for accurate and appropriate analyses of human skeletal trauma. Based on current anthropological, biomedical, and biomechanical research as well as recent national standards for trauma analysis developed by the American Academy of Forensic Sciences' Academy Standards Board (ASB) and NIST's Organization of Scientific Area Committees (OSAC), it provides practitioners with practical guidelines for documenting, describing, interpreting, and reporting both antemortem and acute ("perimortem") skeletal trauma in a forensic anthropological and/or biomedical context. Summaries of the most current trauma research, supported by macro, micro, radiological, and other images, will provide practitioners with a definitive reference for differentiating trauma from other (e.g., pathological and postmortem) evidence and assist them with accurate reconstructions of the context of these traumatic events. It will also guide them in determining trauma timing and mechanism and variables which affect them, and provide advice for accurate reporting and testimony about trauma in the courtroom. In sum, it will serve as the definitive resource for human skeletal trauma analysis for forensic practitioners.
