While chemical products are useful in their own right-they address
the demands and needs of the masses-they also drain our natural
resources and generate unwanted pollution. Green Chemical
Engineering: An Introduction to Catalysis, Kinetics, and Chemical
Processes encourages minimized use of non-renewable natural
resources and fosters maximized pollution prevention. This text
stresses the importance of developing processes that are
environmentally friendly and incorporate the role of green
chemistry and reaction engineering in designing these processes.
Focused on practical application rather than theory, the book
integrates chemical reaction engineering and green chemical
engineering, and is divided into two sections. The first half of
the book covers the basic principles of chemical reaction
engineering and reactor design, while the second half of the book
explores topics on green reactors, green catalysis, and green
processes. The authors mix in elaborate illustrations along with
important developments, practical applications, and recent case
studies. They also include numerous exercises, examples, and
problems covering the various concepts of reaction engineering
addressed in this book, and provide MATLAB (R) software used for
developing computer codes and solving a number of reaction
engineering problems. Consisting of six chapters organized into two
sections, this text: Covers the basic principles of chemical
kinetics and catalysis Gives a brief introduction to classification
and the various types of chemical reactors Discusses in detail the
differential and integral methods of analysis of rate equations for
different types of reactions Presents the development of rate
equations for solid catalyzed reactions and enzyme catalyzed
biochemical reactions Explains methods for estimation of kinetic
parameters from batch reactor data Details topics on homogeneous
reactors Includes graphical procedures for the design of multiple
reactors Contains topics on heterogeneous reactors including
catalytic and non-catalytic reactors Reviews various models for
non-catalytic gas-solid and gas-liquid reactions Introduces global
rate equations and explicit design equations for a variety of
non-catalytic reactors Gives an overview of novel green reactors
and the application of CFD technique in the modeling of green
reactors Offers detailed discussions of a number of novel reactors
Provides a brief introduction to CFD and the application of CFD
Highlights the development of a green catalytic process and the
application of a green catalyst in the treatment of industrial
effluent Comprehensive and thorough in its coverage, Green Chemical
Engineering: An Introduction to Catalysis, Kinetics, and Chemical
Processes explains the basic concepts of green engineering and
reactor design fundamentals, and provides key knowledge for
students at technical universities and professionals already
working in the industry.
The field of the molecular basis of plant disease is rapidly
developing. The nineteen chapters of current information in
Molecular Strategies of Pathogens and Host Plants are written by
well known experts in the United States and Japan, and cover recent
progress in the genetics and molecular biology of bacteria and
fungi which are pathogens of plants. This research emphasizes the
genes which are responsible for production of toxins, enzymes, and
hormones that lead to pathogenicity and specificity in
plant-pathogen interactions. Several chapters also examine the
biochemistry of the plant's response to microbial attack.
