Today's Definitive, Undergraduate-Level Introduction to Chemical
Reaction Engineering Problem-Solving For 30 years, H. Scott
Fogler's Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering has been the #1
selling text for courses in chemical reaction engineering
worldwide. Now, in Essentials of Chemical Reaction Engineering,
Second Edition, Fogler has distilled this classic into a modern,
introductory-level guide specifically for undergraduates. This is
the ideal resource for today's students: learners who demand
instantaneous access to information and want to enjoy learning as
they deepen their critical thinking and creative problem-solving
skills. Fogler successfully integrates text, visuals, and computer
simulations, and links theory to practice through many relevant
examples. This updated second edition covers mole balances,
conversion and reactor sizing, rate laws and stoichiometry,
isothermal reactor design, rate data collection/analysis, multiple
reactions, reaction mechanisms, pathways, bioreactions and
bioreactors, catalysis, catalytic reactors, nonisothermal reactor
designs, and more. Its multiple improvements include a new
discussion of activation energy, molecular simulation, and
stochastic modeling, and a significantly revamped chapter on heat
effects in chemical reactors. To promote the transfer of key skills
to real-life settings, Fogler presents three styles of problems:
Straightforward problems that reinforce the principles of chemical
reaction engineering Living Example Problems (LEPs) that allow
students to rapidly explore the issues and look for optimal
solutions Open-ended problems that encourage students to use
inquiry-based learning to practice creative problem-solving skills
