Chemical Reactor Design in Practice: A Problem-Solving Guide to Kinetics, Catalysis, Modelling, and Industrial Scale-Up - Softcover
Synopsis
Chemical Reactor Design in Practice is a comprehensive, problem-solving guide for students, lecturers, researchers, process engineers, and technical professionals who want to understand how chemical reactors are analysed, selected, designed, operated, and scaled up.
Rather than presenting equations without context, this book explains the reasoning behind each design decision. Readers are guided from fundamental concepts—including stoichiometry, material balances, reaction rates, conversion, yield, and selectivity—to advanced topics such as catalytic reactor design, non-ideal flow, heat and mass transfer, numerical modelling, process control, reactor safety, sustainability, and industrial scale-up.
Inside, you will discover how to:
- Develop and apply chemical reaction-rate expressions
- Design batch, continuous stirred-tank, plug-flow, and packed-bed reactors
- Perform material and energy-balance calculations
- Analyse complex, reversible, catalytic, and multiple-reaction systems
- Evaluate residence-time distribution and non-ideal reactor behaviour
- Use spreadsheets, numerical methods, and programming for reactor modelling
- Address thermal runaway, pressure drop, catalyst deactivation, and operational risks
- Move confidently from laboratory data to pilot-plant and commercial-scale design
- Compare reactor alternatives using safety, economic, and sustainability criteria
The book also features worked examples, engineering illustrations, practical design procedures, review questions, case studies, calculation checks, tables, a glossary, and a detailed index.
Whether you are preparing for examinations, completing an engineering project, teaching chemical reaction engineering, or solving a real process-design problem, this book provides a clear and organised pathway from basic principles to professional reactor-design practice.
Build stronger calculations. Make better design decisions. Understand how successful reactor systems work in practice.
