Chemical Reaction Engineering

Beyond the Fundamentals

Beschreibung

This up-to-date textbook fills a longstanding gap for graduate courses in chemical reaction engineering. It explores the interplay between transport processes and reaction kinetics, multiphase reactions and reactors, and optimization and reactor stability. The book includes a brief review of major concepts, describes chemical kinetics and its relation to thermodynamics and transport phenomena, and addresses reactor classification and reactor design for increasingly complex situations. It helps readers to develop the facility to apply engineering analysis to a representative spectrum of industrially important reaction engineering problems.

Autor

L. K. Doraiswamy was the Anson Marston Distinguished Professor in Engineering in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at Iowa State University. He published a 950-page treatise on the application of chemical reaction engineering principles to organic synthesis, introducing the new field of organic synthesis engineering. He was the recipient of over 30 international honors and awards in recognition of his contributions to chemical engineering including the Padma Bhushan of the Government of India and election to the U.S. National Academy of Engineering. Deniz Uner is the chair of the Department of Chemical Engineering of the Middle East Technical University, in Ankara, Turkey, and the founding president of the Catalysis Society of Turkey. Her active research area is at the intersection of catalysis, chemical reaction engineering, and thermodynamics. Her present research is focused on energy-efficient chemical conversions, and storage of solar and thermal energy in chemical bonds. She teaches graduate- and undergraduate-level courses in Chemical Reaction Engineering and Thermodynamics.
