Chemical reaction engineering is a sub-field of chemical engineering or industrial chemistry which deals with chemical reactors. It aims at the optimization of chemical reactions so as to determine the best reactor design. Various factors such as heat transfer, reaction kinetics, mass transfer and flow phenomena are studied to relate reactor performance with feed composition and operating conditions. Chemical reaction engineering is applied across the petroleum and petrochemical industries as well as in systems that require the engineering or modelling of reactions. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in the field of chemical reaction engineering. It presents this complex subject in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. For all readers who are interested in chemical reaction engineering, the case studies included in this book will serve as an excellent guide to develop a comprehensive understanding.
