Beskrivning

Introduction to Chemical Reactor Analysis, Third Edition, introduces the fundamental concepts of chemical reactor analysis and design—knowledge essential to understanding the chemical reactors at the heart of most industrial chemical processes. This extensively revised edition strengthens and expands the treatment throughout, with particular emphasis on the analysis of chemical reactors. It is suitable for two undergraduate-level courses or a single two-term course and gives balanced attention to both homogeneous and heterogeneous reaction systems.Written at an introductory level, the book enables students new to the subject to develop their understanding systematically while providing practicing engineers with the background needed to carry out many common chemical reaction engineering calculations. The opening chapter introduces chemical kinetics, fundamental reactor types, and commonly used reaction-engineering terminology within the broader context of chemical engineering. Subsequent chapters review the thermodynamic principles used in reaction engineering; develop mole and energy balances for ideal reactors; and introduce homogeneous reaction kinetics. The text then considers nonideal reactors, including residence-time distributions and mixing. The remainder of the book is devoted to catalytic systems, including kinetic modeling, transport effects, and reactor analysis. A final chapter introduces experimental methods in catalysis.A working knowledge of thermodynamics, numerical methods, and heat and mass transfer is assumed. Numerous fully worked examples and end-of-chapter problems support learning and application. Overall, the book provides essential preparation for interpreting chemical-reactor performance and improving reactor operation.
