This is the complete, modern introduction to chemical reaction engineering for today’s readers: students who demand instantaneous access to information, have no time to waste, and want to enjoy learning as they build their critical thinking and creative problem solving skills. H. Scott Fogler builds on the strengths of the previous edition to enable students to learn chemical reaction engineering through logic rather than memorization.

Fogler provides extensive resources to help students gain a deep intuitive understanding of how reactors behave in diverse situations, providing more than 60 realistic interactive simulations on the associated website which offers tools, videos, and games designed to support students with many different learning styles. By integrating algorithms, modern computational techniques, the companion website, interactive computer modules, and project-based learning with open-ended problems, Fogler has created an unsurpassed learning platform for today’s chemical engineering student.

  • Teaches chemical reaction engineering through logic and “living example” problems, not memorization
  • New edition includes strong coverage of unsteady-state, non-isothermal reactor design, and the molecular understanding of chemical reactions
  • Complemented by online resources that support students of all learning styles -- including expanded content, lecture notes, software tutorials, links to YouTube videos, PowerPoint slides, and more
  • By H. Scott Fogler, a pioneer in chemical engineering education that teaches students how to be more effective critical thinkers and creative problem solvers.
