Description
Written for use in the first course of a typical chemical engineering program, Material Balances for Chemical Reacting Systems introduces and teaches students a rigorous approach to solving the types of macroscopic balance problems they will encounter as chemical engineers. This first course is generally taken after students have completed their studies of calculus and vector analysis, and these subjects are employed throughout this text. Since courses on ordinary differential equations and linear algebra are often taken simultaneously with the first chemical engineering course, these subjects are introduced as needed.
- Teaches readers the fundamental concepts associated with macroscopic balance analysis of multicomponent, reacting systems
- Offers a novel and scientifically correct approach to handling chemical reactions
- Includes an introductory approach to chemical kinetics
- Features many worked o
