This book provides a comprehensive overview of the practical aspects of multiphase reactor design and operation with an emphasis on safety and clean technology. It considers not only standard operation conditions, but also the problems of runaway reaction conditions and protection against ensuing over-pressure.  \u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eHydrodynamics of Multiphase Reactors\u003c\/i\u003e addresses both practical and theoretical aspects of this topic. Initial chapters discuss various different types of gas\/liquid reactors from a practical viewpoint, and later chapters focus on the modelling of multiphase systems and computational methods for reactor design and problem solving. The material is written by experts in their specific fields and will include chapters on the following topics: Multiphase flow, Bubble columns, Sparged stirred vessels, Macroscale model\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Figures xi  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Tables xix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface xxi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNomenclature xxiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
