Overview

Updated with expanded coverage of electrochemical reactors H. Scott Fogler's Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering, continues to set the standard as the leading textbook in chemical reaction engineering. This edition, coauthored by Bryan R. Goldsmith, Eranda Nikolla, and Nirala Singh, still offers Fogler's engaging and active learning experience, with updated content and expanded coverage of electrochemical reactors. Reflecting current theories and practices, and with a continuing emphasis on safety and sustainability, this edition includes expanded sections on molecular simulation methods, analysis of experimental reactor data, and catalytic reactions. Leveraging the power of Wolfram, Python, POLYMATH, and MATLAB, students can explore the intricacies of reactions and reactors through realistic simulation experiments. This hands-on approach allows students to clearly understand the practical applications of theoretical concepts. This book prepares undergraduate students to apply chemical reaction kinetics and physics to the design of chemical reactors. Advanced chapters cover graduate-level topics, including diffusion and reaction models, residence time distribution, and tools to model non-ideal reactors.

Author Information

H. Scott Fogler was the Ame and Catherine Vennema Professor of Chemical Engineering and the Arthur F. Thurnau Professor at the University of Michigan. He was 2009 President of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers. Fogler chaired ASEE's Chemical Engineering Division, served as director of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, and earned the Warren K. Lewis Award from AIChE for contributions to chemical engineering education. He received the Chemical Manufacturers Association's National Catalyst Award and the 2010 Malcolm E. Pruitt Award from the Council for Chemical Research. Bryan R. Goldsmith is the Dow Corning Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. He joined Michigan in 2017 after completing a Humboldt Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society in Berlin, Germany. He received his PhD in chemical engineering from the University of California Santa Barbara in 2015. His research lab specialises in atomistic modeling and machine learning to understand and design catalysts for chemical conversion, pollution reduction, and energy generation and storage. He was a recipient of the AIChE 35 under 35 Award and the ACS OpenEye Outstanding Junior Faculty Award. Eranda Nikolla is a professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at the University of Michigan and is Materials Science Editor of the Journal of Catalysis. She received MS and PhD degrees from the University of Michigan and was a postdoctoral scholar in chemical engineering at the California Institute of Technology from 2009-2011. Her research lab focuses on studying issues related to thermocatalysis and electrocatalysis for energy and chemical conversion and storage. Nirala Singh is an assistant professor of chemical engineering at the University of Michigan. He received a BSE in chemical engineering from the University of Michigan in 2009 and a PhD in chemical engineering from the University of California Santa Barbara in 2015.
