The methodologies and technologies adaptable to process chemistry are the focus of this unique
book as new catalysts reactions and methods for the synthesis of functional materials are
dealt with in depth for the first time. Those materials take in pharmaceuticals agrochemicals
functional materials chemical raw materials and other substances in the field of process
chemistry including green chemistry. Process chemistry underpins the competitiveness of
chemical and pharmaceutical industries but its stagnation is estimated to cause industrial
depression and excessive loss. For that reason chemists focus on process chemistry
consistently so that the development of novel and efficient new reactions and technologies
provides an essential stimulus. In addition this volume describes the important development of
selected new synthetic devices for process development and the process design for a larger
scale thus furnishing a valuable source for all who are engaged in process chemistry.
