Elements of Chemical ReactionEngineering This worldwide best-selling text, now in its fourth edition, issuitable for both undergraduate and postgraduate courses inchemical engineering and its allied disciplines such as biochemicalengineering and biotechnology. It provides thorough coverage of thefundamentals of chemical reaction engineering in a framework thatallows students to develop practical problem-solving skills. Wovenaround the six pillars of chemical reaction engineering such asmole balances, rate laws, stoichiometry, energy balances, diffusionand contracting, the book builds a strong understanding of theunderlying principles and illustrates how they can be applied tonumerous reactions in a variety of applications. With a combinationof user-friendly software and algorithms, it helps students learnhow to solve problems through reasoning, rather than by memorizingequations. Significant effort has been devoted to developingexamples and problems that foster students' critical and creativethinking. Three styles of problems straightforward, explorative,and open- ended have been included to enhance the transfer ofskills to real-life settings. H. Scott Fogler has updated his classic text to provide evenmore coverage of bioreactions, industrial chemistry with realreactors and reactions, and a broader range of applications, alongwith the newest digital techniques such as COMSOL Multiphysics. Thebook also contains wide-ranging examples from smog to bloodclotting, ethylene oxide production to tissue engineering,antifreeze to cobra bites, and computer chip manufacturing tochemical plant safety.
