2013 AIChE Annual Meeting

Session: Thermodynamics and Transport Under Pressure

Thermodynamics and transport at high pressure are important in supercritical fluid applications, biorefining pretreatments, hydrates, and energy production generally, to name a few. Papers in this session explore theoretical and experimental developments to advance these applications.
