Chemical Reaction Engineering Books
- Chemical Reaction Engineering - by Octave Levenspiel
-- Chemical reaction engineering is concerned with the exploitation of chemical reactions on a commercial scale. It's goal is the successful design and operation of chemical reactors. This text emphasizes qualitative arguments, simple design methods, graphical procedures, and frequent comparison of capabilities of the major reactor types. Simple ideas are treated first, and are then extended to the more complex.

- Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering - by H. Scott Fogler
-- Authoritative coverage of the principles of chemical reaction engineering with an unsurpassed focus on critical thinking and creative problem solving, employing open-ended questions and stressing the Socratic method. Clear and superbly organized, it integrates text, visuals, and computer simulations to help readers solve even the most challenging problems through reasoning, rather than by memorizing equations.
- Chemical Reaction Engineering - by Ian S. Metcalfe
-- This compact yet comprehensive book covers the material required for a basic understanding of chemical reaction engineering. The principles of reaction engineering are simply and clearly presented, and illustrative problems are used to demonstrate how these principles are practically applied.
