Transport Phenomena for Chemical Reactor Design
Laurence A. Belfiore
J. Wiley
This graduate textbook approaches the design of chemical reactors from microscopic heat and mass transfer principles. Belfiore (Colorado State University) describes the design of packed catalytic tubular reactors, analyzes mass transfer and chemical reactions in isothermal catalytic pellets, and develops quantitative methods to estimate diffusion and axial dispersion coefficients.
