"Chemical Reactor Analysis and Applications for the Practicing Engineer" by Louis Theodore
Wiley Series of Essential Engineering Calculations
John Wilеу & Sons | 2012 | ISBN: 0470915358 9780470915356 | 593 pages | PDF | 21 MB
This book provides the tools needed to solve key challenges in chemical reactor design and analysis. This book serves as a training tool that enables readers to effectively design and analyze chemical reactors. With its focus on applications, the text demonstrates how to design and operate a reactor that works at maximum efficiency and minimum cost, producing the highest yield of product. It also addresses operation, maintenance, and inspection (OM&I) methods and procedures to purchase a reactor.
The book includes a review of Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) topics as they apply to chemical reactors, making it an ideal preparation tool for readers who plan to take the Professional Engineering (PE) exams.
With its many practical examples and emphasis on applications, this book is recommended for engineers and students, particularly those who are preparing for the PE exams.
The book is divided into four parts:
Part I, Introduction, explores the history of chemical reactors, process variables, basic operations, chemical kinetic principles, and stoichometrical conversion variables. The first part serves as an introduction to the subject title and contains chapters dealing with history, process variables, basic operations, kinetic principles, and conversion variables.
Part II, Traditional Reactor Analysis, addresses and compares batch, continuous stirred tank, and tubular flow reactors. The second part of the book addresses traditional reactor analysis; chapter topics include batch, CSTRs, tubular flow reactors, plus a comparison of these classes of reactors.
Part III, Reactor Applications, guides readers through thermal effects, interpretation of kinetic data, non-ideal reactors, and reactor design. Part 3 keys on reactor applications that include non-ideal reactors: thermal effects, interpretation of kinetic data, and reactor design.
Part IV, Other Reactor Topics, examines catalysis, catalytic reactions, fluidized and fixed bed reactors, biochemical reactors, and ABET-related topics
