The necessary 2nd edition offered the possibility to add new terms especially from the field of refractory engineering. The title was correspondingly change to 'Dictionary of refractory and refractory engineering'. This dictionary contains now approximately 5.500 terms from the special field of refractory materials, their testing and use and standard technical vocabulary. At the end there is a list of dictionaries focusing on related fields and technology. Furthermore, a list of CD-ROMs with terms used in the ceramic industry (German, English) and refractory industry (5 languages) is given. Further mention is made of cover-to-cover translations of books on refractory materials and refractory engineering as well as European Standards (CEN) for refractories available in English, German and French. These Standards are of great assistance to learn the English or German technical terms in the refractory field.

Refractory linings must be installed in plants and furnaces operated by the nonferrous metal, iron and steel, glass, construction material, chemical and petrochemical industries as well as in power plants and refuse incinerators. Consequently, refractory engineering is charged with a major task: control the fire and protection of the supporting structure of the furnaces and plants against too high temperatures.

The third edition of the Dictionary of Ceramic Science and Engineering builds on the heavily revised 2nd edition which, in turn, expanded the original edition by some 4000 entries to include new fabrication, testing, materials, and vocabulary. The proven basis of the first two editions has been retained but new words and phrases have been added from the rapidly advancing electronic, nanoparticle and modern materials engineering fields. Additionally, all measurements in SI units are given to facilitate communication among the many sub-disciplines touched on by ceramics, ensuring that this publication remains the field's standard reference work for years to come. This extended edition of the Dictionary of Ceramic Science and Engineering ably follows its predecessors as an authoritative resource for students, researchers and professionals dealing with the processing of Materials.

The book provides, in a compact format, basic knowledge and practically oriented information on specific properties of refractory materials, on their testing and inspection, and on interpretation of test results. Tables and illustrations are used to clarify fundamental concepts on a comparative basis. This pocket format manual provides an overview of the diverse range of modern refractories and their application-relevant properties. Its main feature is a series of practice-derived articles by well-known authors in the field on the various material groups and their characteristic property data. The content has deliberately been kept concise and instructive, abstracting and more detailed works are referenced.

This newly updated dictionary provides a comprehensive reference of hundreds of environmental engineering terms used throughout the field. Drawing from many government documents and legal and regulatory sources, this edition includes terms relating to pollution control technologies, monitoring, risk assessment, sampling and analysis, quality control, and permitting. This new edition now also includes fuel cell technology terms, environmental management terms, and basic environmental calculations. Users of this dictionary will find exact and official Environmental Protection Agency definitions for environmental terms that are statute-related, regulation-related, science-related, and engineering-related, including terms from the following legal documents: Clean Air Act; Clean Water Act; CERCLA; EPCRA; Federal Facility Compliance Act; Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act; FIFRA; Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendment; OSHA; Pollution Prevention Act; RCRA; Safe Drinking Water Act; Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act; and TSCA. The terms included in this dictionary feature time-saving cites to the definitions' source, including the Code of Federal Regulations, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Department of Energy. A list of the reference source documents is also included.
