The Definitive, Fully Updated Guide to Solving Real-World Chemical Reaction Engineering Problems For decades, H. Scott Fogler&;s Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering has been the world&;s dominant text for courses in chemical reaction engineering. Now, Fogler has created a new, completely updated fifth edition of his internationally respected book. The result is a refined book that contains new examples and problems, as well as an updated companion Web site. More than ever, Fogler has successfully integrated text, visuals, and computer simulations to help both undergraduate and graduate students master all of the field&;s fundamentals. As always, he links theory to practice through many relevant examples, ranging from standard isothermal and non-isothermal reactor design to applications, such as solar energy, blood clotting, and drug delivery, and computer chip manufacturing. To promote the transfer of key skills to real-life settings, Fogler presents the following three styles of problems: Straightforward problems that reinforce the principles of chemical reaction engineering Living Example Problems (LEPs) that allow students to rapidly explore the issues and look for optimal solutions Open-ended problems that encourage students to practice creative problem-solving skills About the Web Site The companion Web site offers extensive enrichment opportunities and additional content, including Complete PowerPoint slides for lecture notes for chemical reaction engineering classes. Links to additional software, including POLYMATH&;, Matlab&;, Wolfram Mathematica&;, AspenTech&;, and COMSOL&;. Interactive learning resources linked to each chapter, including Learning Objectives, Summary Notes, Web Modules, Interactive Computer Games, Solved Problems, FAQs, additional homework problems, and links to Learncheme. Living Example Problems that provide more than eighty interactive simulations, allowing students to explore the examples and ask &;what-if&; questions. The LEPs are unique to this book. Professional Reference Shelf, which includes advanced content on reactors, weighted least squares, experimental planning, laboratory reactors, pharmacokinetics, wire gauze reactors, trickle bed reactors, fluidized bed reactors, CVD boat reactors, detailed explanations of key derivations, and more. Problem-solving strategies and insights on creative and critical thinking. Review: Textbook - Bought for a class. desertcart has good prices on Textbooks. It has saved me thousands over the years versus buying from the campus bookstore. Review: Very clear and well written - Scott Fogler is a Kinetics GOD, this book is very well written and easy to read. As far as construction quality the book it is hardcover and seems very durable. I would recommend purchasing books from this company again!

Book shipped internationally in pretty quickly (took total of 5 days)
Better than expected in terms of both quality and content. Book shipped internationally pretty quickly (took total of 5 days). The book itself is one of the best that I have read. The examples shown and the sequence of thought that I had to follow as a student. Definitely worth its price.

Excelente
Tema bastante complejo y su autor es referencia en el campo de la química. Es una actualización importante de tener hoy en día. Gracias también estaba complicado de conseguir acá me ayudaron con eso.

Great for reminding you how much you don't know
The text is great and I didn't find any errors. It didn't help my extreme sadness but it now sits on my bookshelf as a reminder that I did indeed survive hell.

One of the best books I've had so far in my Chemical Engineering ...
One of the best books I've had so far in my Chemical Engineering studies. Really helped with my understanding of reactor design!

Inferior to previous editions...
This post is regarding the 5th Ed. (2016). I bought it at the start of the semester because my reactor design professor asked specifically for this new edition, even though he hadn't received his own copy of the book. When we started using it, it turns out that some chapters that were present in the 4th edition were ditched and some, which we consider a bit unnecessary, were added. However, what I believe hurts this new edition the most, is that it has less than half of the exercise problems that previous editions had. The worst part is that it still has those exercises that say things like "Go home and rest"!!! As for content, the book is good, but I would encourage other students to find a copy of the 4th edition if you actually want practice problems for your tests. Best of luck to all ChE students out there.

Offers Great insights for Checmical Reaction
I think that this book (or one of its equivalent) is essential for a chemical engineer. If you are buying it for a class, I can assure you, you will get to use it again in the future.
