The field of chemical engineering is undergoing a global “renaissance,” with new processes, equipment, and sources changing literally every day. It is a dynamic, important area of study and the basis for some of the most lucrative and integral fields of science. Introduction to Chemical Engineering offers a comprehensive overview of the concept, principles and applications of chemical engineering. It explains the distinct chemical engineering knowledge which gave rise to a general-purpose technology and broadest engineering field. The book serves as a conduit between college education and the real-world chemical engineering practice. It answers many questions students and young engineers often ask which include: How is what I studied in the classroom being applied in the industrial setting? What steps do I need to take to become a professional chemical engineer? What are the career diversities in chemical engineering and the engineering knowledge required? How is chemical engineering design done in real-world? What are the chemical engineering computer tools and their applications? What are the prospects, present and future challenges of chemical engineering? And so on. It also provides the information new chemical engineering hires would need to excel and cross the critical novice engineer stage of their career. It is expected that this book will enhance students understanding and performance in the field and the development of the profession worldwide. Whether a new-hire engineer or a veteran in the field, this is a must—have volume for any chemical engineer’s library.

The book is intended for upper level undergraduates, and graduate students with an introductory background in biology, chemistry, and physics. The book is a meta-review of neuroscience literature, with learning applications. Because neither author has done research in neuroscience, no bias is given to a particular research area or result. One author (CN) is a neurosurgeon with 15 years of practice; the other (DS) is a chemical & biological engineer with 40 years of practice in academia and industry. The figures were drawn by a pre-medical student (MS).

Globalizationâ€"the flow of people, goods, services, capital, and technology across international bordersâ€"is significantly impacting the chemistry and chemical engineering professions. Chemical companies are seeking new ideas, a trained workforce, and new market opportunities regardless of geographic location. During an October 2003 workshop, leaders in chemistry and chemical engineering from industry, academia, government, and private funding organizations explored the implications of an increasingly global research environment for the chemistry and chemical engineering workforce. The workshop presentations described deficiencies in the current educational system and the need to create and sustain a globally aware workforce in the near future. The goal of the workshop was to inform the Chemical Sciences Roundtable, which provides a science-oriented, apolitical forum for leaders in the chemical sciences to discuss chemically related issues affecting government, industry, and universities.

General Chemistry for Engineers is tailored for a one-semester freshman-level college course for students pursuing engineering degrees. The book offers a balance of conciseness, rigor, and depth needed to prepare students for more advanced coursework and careers in various engineering specialties, such as civil, environmental, electrical, computer, mechanical and industrial engineering, in addition to chemical engineering. This text leads students through the breadth of a typical two-semester sequence in general chemistry. It elucidates the key concepts and skills important for entering engineering students, including problem solving, qualitative and quantitative thinking, and importance of units. Examples are drawn from problems of interest to modern engineers, including alternative energy, advanced materials, and the environment. The book is the result of the author's unique experiences teaching approximately 2,500 freshman in chemistry and upper-level students in chemical and biological engineering, in addition to leading research and development teaching in the medical device and specialty pharmaceutical industries. The author received a variety of teaching awards at Northeastern honoring his work in making an intense, fast-pace course manageable and exciting.

The bioseparation engineering of today includes downstream process engineering such as waste water, material and gas treatment. Taking this tendency into account, bioseparation engineers gathered in Japan as a special research group under the main theme of "Recovery and Recycle of Resources to Protect the Global Environment".The scope of this book is based on the conference, and deals not only with recent advances in bioseparation engineering in a narrow sence, but also the environmental engineering which includes waste water treatment and bioremediation. The contributors of this book cover many disciplines such as chemical engineering, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, and microbiology.Bioseparation Engineering will stimulate young engineers and scientists who will develop bioseparation engineering further in the 21st century, and contribute to a world-wide attention to the global environment

Physical Chemistry for Engineers: A Guided Tour provides students with a comprehensive exploration of the entire field of physical chemistry, with particular emphasis on molecular behavior. The book helps students develop a clear understanding of the modern, molecular view of the physical world, along with an appreciation of the use of molecular models in describing physical systems. Section I of the text provides students with an introduction to physical chemistry and the Ideal Gas Law, then establishes the foundation of statistical mechanics, including probability and the Boltzmann distribution, all leading to kinetic molecular theory. Section II covers chemical kinetics, including chapters dedicated to collision theory, rate laws, reaction mechanisms, and surface reactions. Section III covers the fundamentals of quantum mechanics and spectroscopy. Section IV explores statistical mechanics to a greater degree, and shows students how to apply knowledge of microscopic behavior to predict bulk properties. Section V covers the fundamentals of chemical thermodynamics and introduces students to the Laws of Thermodynamics, Gibbs Energy, and more. The final section discusses transition state theory and the philosophy of physical chemistry. Physical Chemistry for Engineers is particularly well suited for chemical engineering programs, but could also be used in other engineering disciplines and materials science. By presenting students with foundational information that prepares them for more advanced courses in their respective disciplines, the text is ideal for one- or two-semester undergraduate courses in physical chemistry.
