In the Classroom 'Chemical Reactions and Chemical Reactors' is written to provide the instructor with flexibility to choose the order in which topics are covered. Some options include: Applications Up Front: Lately, I have been covering the chapters in order, from Chapter 1 through Chapter 9. This approach might be labeled the 'mixed up' approach because it switches back and forth between kinetics and reactor sizing/analysis. Chapter 2 provides just enough information about chemical kinetics to allow the student to understand ideal xvi Preface reactors, to size ideal reactors, and to analyze the behavior of ideal reactors, in Chapters 3 and 4. Chapters 5 and 6 then return to kinetics, and treat it in more detail, and from a more fundamental point of view. I use this approach because some students do not have the patience to work through Chapters 2 and 5 unless they can see the eventual application of the material. Kinetics Up Front: Chapter 5 has been written so that it can be taught immediately after Chapter 2, before starting Chapter 3.

The order of coverage then would be Chapters 1, 2, 5, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Proshivka mio s650 pro. This might be referred to as the 'kinetics up front' approach.

Reactors Up Front: A third alternative is the 'reactors up front' approach, in which the order of the chapters would be either: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 5, 6 or 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 5, 6, 9. The various chapters have been written to enable any of these approaches. The final choice is strictly a matter of instructor preference.

Some important topics are not covered in the first version of this text. Two unfortunate examples are transition-state theory and reactors involving two fluid phases. An instructor that wished to introduce some additional material on transition-state theory could easily do so as an extension of either Chapter 2 or Chapter 5.

Supplementary material on multiphase reactors fits well into Chapter 9. Based on my personal experience in teaching from various versions of this text, I found it difficult to cover even the first nine chapters, in a way that was understandable to the majority of students. I seldom, if ever, got to Chapter 10.

A student that masters the material in the first nine chapters should be very well prepared to learn advanced material 'on the job,' or to function effectively in graduate courses in chemical kinetics or chemical reaction engineering.

The trip has been tortuous, but never lonely. I have been accompanied by a number of fellow travelers, each of who helped me to understand the complexities of the subject, and to appreciate its beauty and importance. Some were teachers, who shared their accumulated wisdom and stimulated my interest in the subject. Many were collaborators, both industrial and academic, who worked with me to solve a variety of interesting and challenging problems. Most recently, my fellow travelers have been students, both undergraduate and graduate. They have challenged me to communicate my own knowledge in a clear and understandable manner, and have forced me to expand my comprehension of the subject. I hope that I can express the debt that I owe to all of these many individuals.

A summer internship started my journey through catalysis, reaction kinetics, and reactor design and analysis, before the term 'chemical reaction engineering' came into popular use. For three months, with what was then the California Research Corporation, I tackled a very exciting set of problems in catalytic reaction kinetics. Two exceptional industrial practitioners, Drs. John Scott and Harry Mason, took an interest in my work, made the importance of catalysis in industrial practice clear to me, and had a great influence on the direction of my career. I returned to Cornell University that fall to take my first course in 'kinetics' under Professor Peter Harriott. That course nourished my developing interest in reaction kinetics and reactor design/analysis, and provided a solid foundation for my subsequent pursuits in the area.
