Levenspiels' Chemical Reaction Engineering has been designed as an introductory textbook for the undergraduate course in the domain. The text written in a student-friendly style, helps students learn how to answer reactor design questions and develop a strong intuitive sense for good design. It builds on concepts progressively, with appropriate emphasis on assumptions made, why an alternative approach is not used, and indicates the limitations of the treatment when applied to real situations. The Indian Adaptation of Chemical Reaction Engineering, Third Edition, is restructured at places and offers new and updated material to provide complete coverage of the course as per the Indian curriculum.||About the Author||Octave Levenspiel was a professor of chemical engineering at Oregon State University.
