Sommario/riassunto

Laurence Belfiore's unique treatment meshes two mainstream subject areas in chemical engineering: transport phenomena and chemical reactor design. Expressly intended as an extension of Bird, Stewart, and Lightfoot's classic Transport Phenomena, and Froment and Bischoff's Chemical Reactor Analysis and Design, Second Edition, Belfiore's unprecedented text explores the synthesis of these two disciplines in a manner the upper undergraduate or graduate reader can readily grasp. Transport Phenomena for Chemical Reactor Design approaches the design of chemical reactors from microscopi
