Hill, Charles G.

Introduction to chemical engineering kinetics and reactor design - 2nd - New Jersey: John Wiley & Sons, 2014. - xiii, 557 p.; hb; 29 cm.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

This edition has been extensively revised and updated and continues to offer a solid background in chemical reaction kinetics as well as in material and energy balances, preparing readers with the foundation necessary for success in the design of chemical reactors. It reflects not only the basic engineering science, but also the mathematical tools used by today's engineers to solve problems associated with the design of chemical reactors. The book enables readers to progressively build their knowledge and skills by applying the laws of conservation of mass and energy to increasingly more difficult challenges in reactor design. Topics include: thermodynamics of chemical reactions; determination of reaction rate expressions; elements of heterogeneous catalysis; basic concepts in reactor design and ideal reactor models; temperature and energy effects in chemical reactors; basic and applied aspects of biochemical transformations and bioreactors.
