<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Introductory treatment covers both homogeneous and heterogeneous reacting systems and examines chemical <i>reaction</i> engineering as well as chemical <i>reactor</i> engineering. Numerous examples of commercial applications will engage and motivate students. 2003 edition.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Appropriate for a one-semester undergraduate or first-year graduate course, this text introduces the quantitative treatment of chemical reaction engineering. It covers both homogeneous and heterogeneous reacting systems and examines chemical <i>reaction</i> engineering as well as chemical <i>reactor</i> engineering. The authors take a chemical approach, helping students develop an intuitive feeling for concepts, rather than an engineering approach, which tends to overlook the inner workings of systems and objects.<br>Each chapter contains numerous worked-out problems and real-world vignettes involving commercial applications. Topics include the basics of reaction kinetics and rate constants of elementary reactions, reactors for measuring reaction rates and the steady-state approximation, and heterogeneous catalysis. Additional subjects include the effects of transport limitations on rates of solid-catalyzed reactions, microkinetic analysis of catalytic reactions, nonideal flow in reactors, nonisothermal reactors, and reactors accomplishing heterogeneous reactions. Excellent illustrations complement the text, which concludes with three helpful appendices.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Mark E. Davis is a chemical engineering professor at California Institute of Technology. Robert J. Davis is a chemical engineering professor at the University of Virginia.
