Mathematical Modelling of Gas-Phase Complex Reaction Systems: Pyrolysis and Combustion, Volume 45, gives an overview of the different steps involved in the development and application of detailed kinetic mechanisms, mainly relating to pyrolysis and combustion processes. The book is divided into two parts that cover the chemistry and kinetic models and then the numerical and statistical methods. It offers a comprehensive coverage of the theory and tools needed, along with the steps necessary for practical and industrial applications.

Details thermochemical properties and "ab initio" calculations of elementary reaction rates
Details kinetic mechanisms of pyrolysis and combustion processes
Explains experimental data for improving reaction models and for kinetic mechanisms assessment
Describes surrogate fuels and molecular reconstruction of hydrocarbon liquid mixtures
Describes pollutant formation in combustion systems
Solves and validates the kinetic mechanisms using numerical and statistical methods
Outlines optimal design of industrial burners and optimization and dynamic control of pyrolysis furnaces
Outlines large eddy simulation of turbulent reacting flows

About the Authors:

Tiziano Faravelli (Dipartimento di Chimica, Materiali e Ingegneria Chimica, Politecnico di Milano) is highly experienced in kinetics and computational fluid dynamics modeling. He also works on integration of lumped kinetic models in CFD codes for detailed studies of reactive environments. He is the author of more than 200 peer-reviewed papers on the topic and is the Leader of the CRECK Modeling Group at Politecnico di Milano (http://creckmodeling.chem.polimi.it).

Flavio Manenti (Dipartimento di Chimica, Materiali e Ingegneria Chimica, Politecnico di Milano) is experienced in chemical process simulations for design and operational purposes. He developed AG2S™ technology for thermal conversion of CO2 and codeveloped BzzMath library. He is the author of peer-reviewed papers and books on the topic and is the President of the Computer Aided Process Engineering (CAPE) Working Party at the European Federation of Chemical Engineering.

Eliseo Ranzi (Dipartimento di Chimica, Materiali e Ingegneria Chimica, Politecnico di Milano) is highly experienced in kinetic modeling of complex reaction systems, including pyrolysis, gasification, and combustion. He has authored many peer-reviewed papers on the topic. Notably, he also developed SPYRO package, which nowadays is commercialized by Pyrotec-Technip NL for industrial crackers.
