Written for students, Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering, 6th Edition provides instant access to information, avoids extraneous details, and presents novel problems linking theory to practice. Faculty can flexibly define their courses, drawing on updated chapters, problems, and extensive Professional Reference Shelf web content at diverse levels of difficulty. This Sixth Edition and integrated Web site deliver a compelling active learning experience. Using sliders and interactive MATLAB Live Scripts students can explore reactions and reactors by running realistic simulation experiments.
The book prepares undergraduates to apply chemical reaction kinetics and physics to the design of chemical reactors. And four advanced chapters address graduate-level topics, including effectiveness factors. To support the field’s growing emphasis on chemical reactor safety, each chapter now ends with a practical safety lesson.
- Updates throughout the book reflect current theory and practice and emphasize safety
- New discussions of molecular simulations and stochastic modeling
- Increased emphasis on alternative energy sources such as solar and biofuels
- Thorough reworking of three chapters on heat effects
- Full chapters on nonideal reactors, diffusion limitations, and residence time distribution
The MATLAB code used in the book is available for download through the author's website.
