Chemical Reaction Engineering and Reactor Technology

The latest volume in our highly respected "Chemical Industries Series", this advanced text defines the qualitative aspects that affect the selection of a industrial chemical reactor and couples various reactor models to the case-specific kinetic expressions for various chemical processes. Special attention is given to the exact formulation and derivation of mass and energy balances; numeric solutions accompany each formula. A collection of exercises and solved problems is included.
