This book is an introduction to the quantitative treatment of chemical reaction engineering. It is appropriate for a one-semester undergraduate (or first-year graduate) course. The text provides a balanced approach: first, it covers both homogeneous and heterogeneous reacting systems; second, it covers both chemical reaction engineering and chemical reactor engineering.

Coal Pyrolysis
Tuesday, October 13th, 2009This monograph was written to organize recent results of pyrolysis research. Experimental and theoretical aspects, given approximately equal weight, are discussed in the light of basic chemical and physical mechanisms. With this orientation the monograph should be useful to chemists, engineers and graduate students with interests in coal research.

Frontiers in Chemistry
Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009On the scientific side, the introduction of new techniques which can virtually see at molecular level has revolutionized the way chemistry is practiced today. One has started looking at nano scale and started designing and fabricating tools at nano scale. This can have far reaching consequences and the expected surprises can be in almost all sectors of human endeavour. It is therefore natural that the teaching and learning of Chemistry have also to change. This is evident from the methodology that one has to adopt since lecture based courses are not longer appealing and one has to use a variety of soft ware tools to demonstrate and make the molecules perform so that the teacher and the taught is enjoying the knowledge transfer process in a totally different platform.

Spray Dryer Parameters for Fruit Juice Drying
Monday, October 20th, 2008Spray drying is one of the most complex methods for fruit juice drying. Fruit juice is very sensitive and affected the different drying parameters. These parameters should be tested and determined before the design of the dryers. With laboratory spray dryer the basic parameters for drying of orange juice with 65%
concentration was studied.The investigated parameters include: drying agent material
