Features: This book focuses on the mutual influence of chemical reactions and transport processes such as flow, heat transfer, and mass transfer in industrial reactors, elaborating on the fundamental principles of chemical reaction engineering. It demonstrates the application of these principles in the analysis of industrial reaction processes through numerous examples. The book is divided into nine chapters. Chapter 1 introduces the research objectives and methods of chemical reaction engineering; Chapter 2 discusses the significance and methods of understanding the thermodynamic and kinetic characteristics of reaction systems; Chapters 3 to 8 describe the effects of backmixing, microheterogeneous mixing, heat and mass transfer within and between reaction phases on reaction rate and selectivity, as well as the basic methods for designing and calculating various types of reactors and the fundamental approaches for optimizing reaction processes; Chapter 9 discusses the thermal stability and parameter sensitivity of chemical reactors. The book aims to clarify fundamental concepts while guiding readers to master the methods of analyzing industrial reaction processes, avoiding overly complex mathematical derivations. It can serve as a textbook for engineering master's students in chemical engineering and as an introductory textbook for engineering technicians engaged in the design, development, and operation of industrial reaction processes.
