It is the purpose of this book to present a concise and
sufficiently detailed de scription of the present state and
possibilities of calculating chemical equilibria of gas mixtures.
It is based on a book by one of the authors, published in Czech by
the Publishing House Academia in Prague. The rapid development of
the topic during the two years since publication of the Czech
edition has made it necessary to revise practically all the
sections in order to bring them up to the present level of know
ledge. One reason for writing this book was the practical
requirement of contemporary industry, where a rational utilization
of equilibrium composition calculations may provide valuable
information concerning processes under study in all stages of their
implementation. A second reason was the need of a text-book for
studying this part of chemical thermodynamics in the scope as
taught at the Institute of Chemical Technology, Prague. These two
basic motives determine the overall structure of the book, as well
as the proportions and arrangement of the chapters. The book
includes fundamental thermodynamic concepts as well as the
mathematical apparatus needed to solve the problems involved, care
being taken that the discussion should always l ad to a practical
procedure of performing equilibrium calculations in gas-phase
systems of any degree of complexity whatever. Knowledge of chemical
thermodynamics on the level of a fundamental university course is
assumed."
