About the book

Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of alcoholic fermentation and an important component of many beverages. The extraction and processing of carbon dioxide are of great importance for the quality assurance of beverages. This book is intended as a current summary of the state of the art in CO₂-Recovery plants and on the topic of CO₂The results of the work are of a recommendatory nature and are intended to serve as a planning aid for new recovery plants.

The aim is also to provide information and recommendations for the optimal operation of existing systems and for their improvement or retrofitting.
