Summary

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