Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering By H. Scott Fogler, is a guide book covering all aspects of chemical reaction engineering and caters to the needs of undergraduates and graduate students who are pursuing a course in Chemical Reaction Engineering. Summary Of The Book The spotlight of the book Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering By H. Scott Fogler lies on the solving of chemical reaction problems through reasoning rather than through memorization of the numerous equations and formulas. The book intricately deals with the intrinsic workings of chemical reaction engineering and its properties. It is essential for students pursuing a course in Chemical Reaction Engineering and in such relevant courses as Biochemical Engineering and Biotechnology. Mole balances, rate laws, energy balances, stoichiometry, diffusion and contraction in various arenas of chemical reaction engineering are meticulously discussed. The book takes students to the core of the subject matter so that they become equipped to solve even the toughest problems. The book comes with a host of challenging problems to solve. It gets the students into a rigorous and creative problem solving spree with the help software packages. The CD that comes along with the book provides an additional source of knowledge. It comprises of summary notes of all the chapters in the book, essential learning resources, a host of example problems, professional reference shelf, additional study materials and guide. The book Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering By H. Scott Fogler has been well received by students and professors in the field of Chemical Reaction Engineering. About H.
