| dc.description | The contents of this book derive, fi rst of all, from lessons lectured by both of the authors to students of the course, “Principles of Industrial Chemistry and Related Exercises,” taken for the Master’s Degree of Industrial Chemistry at the University Federico II of Naples, Italy. The content is also the result of many years of experimental and theoretical research work conducted by the authors in the fi eld of chemical-reaction engineering. During their 30 years of research and teaching, science and technology have made an enormous progress, in particular after the advent of very powerful personal computers. In the old textbooks, many problems of industrial chemistry had approximated analytical or graphical solutions to avoid long and tedious hand-made calculations. The fi rst computers—which were slow, expensive, and bulky—allowed for more rigorous calculations but were accessible only to specialists using a rigid software language, such as FORTRAN. The large diffusion of personal computers that are fast, cheap and small—combined with a flexible and powerful software, such as MATLAB—allow everybody to solve many complicated problems with a numerical approach that is simpler, faster, and more satisfactory as to precision. Therefore, in this book, together with the theo- retical approach to different topics, which is necessary to know for understanding the chemical reactor behaviour (e.g., thermodynamics of physical and chemical transformation, catalysis, kinetics, and mass transfer), many exercises are proposed inside the chapters devoted to the mentioned topics. The solutions to the exercises are described in detail inside the text, but the reader can fi nd (at the Springer website) the MATLAB codes related to any single exercise and can interact directly with the proposed mathematical models and related solutions. The solutions are based on a numerical approach. A brief description of the main algorithm used, along with simple examples, is also reported on the Springer website with the MATLAB codes for the exercises. | en |
