Description

Essentials of Chemical Reaction Engineering 2nd Edition (Second Edition) by H. Scott Fogler

This is the complete, modern introduction to chemical reaction engineering for today’s readers: students who demand instantaneous access to information, have no time to waste, and want to enjoy learning as they build their critical thinking and creative problem solving skills. H. Scott Fogler builds on the strengths of the previous edition to enable students to learn chemical reaction engineering through logic rather than memorization.

Fogler provides extensive resources to help students gain a deep intuitive understanding of how reactors behave in diverse situations, providing more than 60 realistic interactive simulations on the associated website which offers tools, videos, and games designed to support students with many different learning styles. By integrating algorithms, modern computational techniques, the companion website, interactive computer modules, and project-based learning with open-ended problems, Fogler has created an unsurpassed learning platform for today’s chemical engineering student.

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:

1. Straightforward problems that reinforce the principles of chemical reaction engineering
2. Living Example Problems (LEPs) that allow students to rapidly explore the issues and look for optimal solutions
3. Open-ended problems that encourage students to use inquiry-based learning to practice creative problem-solving skills
