Summary

This is the second edition of the French translation of the book "Clean-room design". It is based on a series of courses run by international experts at Glasgow University; these experts share: the fruit of their long experience in the field of industrial design, their knowledge of standards, high-performance air filtration, construction materials, and the production of high-purity gases and water. Demand for clean rooms is flourishing as manufacturing becomes increasingly sophisticated. From computers and CD players to medicines and convenience foods, more and more products require high levels of contamination control. Fully revised and updated, this book presents the latest advances in the field. Written by a highly experienced team of international authors, the broad coverage encompasses the design of clean rooms for the microelectronics, pharmaceutical, medical device and biotechnology industries. Features include: new chapter on the design of medical devices featuring configurations for heart pacemakers and aortic bioprotheses; examination of the international standards for the design of clean rooms providing the designer with a concise information source; discussion of cost-efficiency and energy-saving concepts such as minimizing the air flow rate and the impact of mini-environments; section on high efficiency air filtration looking at filter standards and testing; practical guidance on construction materials and surface finishes, pipe-work design, the production and transmission of high purity gases and water purification techniques.
