Updated edition of a fundamental text on the synergy of transport phenomena and chemical reactor design
Approached from microscopic heat and mass transfer principles, Transport Phenomena for Chemical and Biological Reaction Engineering provides a unique approach to the subject by meshing transport phenomena and chemical reactor design, two mainstream subject areas in the field of chemical engineering. The book includes numerical solutions of complex problems in which all supporting equations are provided for quantitative understanding. Detailed illustrations are also included throughout to elucidate key concepts.
Highlighting bioreactors, biomaterials, catalytic pellets, and other transport/reactor applications, this newly revised and updated Second Edition explains and features cutting-edge knowledge on Maxwell-Stefan multicomponent mass transfer, external-field-stimulated kinetics, porous biomaterials for tissue engineering, and many other topics. The introductory section offers a review of elementary concepts in chemical reactor design as well as computer-aided problems that address coupled heat and mass transfer. At a more advanced level, boundary-layer theory, surface science, and stress-sensitive kinetic rate expressions are included in various formulations of the reaction-diffusion equation.
Content features:
Adiabatic temperature increase for exothermic reactions in isolated catalysts yields modifications to the original Prater equation when considering collision integrals, Soret diffusion, and Dufour conduction
Stress-kinetic couplings in tubular and rotational bioreactors when cells respond to viscous shear at the fluid-solid interface
Tissue regeneration in porous viscoelastic biomaterials when anchorage-dependent cells proliferate in response to oscillatory strain excitation
Why stress-sensitive thresholds, quantified via dimensionless numbers in transport phenomena, must be considered to design bioreactors for tissue regeneration in living systems
Transport Phenomena for Chemical and Biological Reaction Engineering is an essential reference for professionals and graduate students in biomedical, biochemical, chemical, geothermal, civil, and mechanical engineering. Readers in the fields of material science, geology, hydrology, chemistry, and polymer science will also find it valuable.
