Catalysis and Kinetics Molecular Level Considerations [Hardcover]

Advances in Chemical Engineering was established in 1960 and is the definitive serial in the area. It is one of great importance to organic chemists, polymer chemists, and many biological scientists. Written by established authorities in the field, the comprehensive reviews combine descriptive chemistry and mechanistic insight and yield an understanding of how the chemistry drives the properties. This volume covers the topic of catalysis and kinetics and aspects in chemical engineering.

• Control and optimization of process systems
• Polyelectrolytes
• Propane dehydrogenation and selective oxidation of hydrogen
• Chromium catalysts for ethylene polymerization and oligomerization
• Computational simulation of rare Earth catalysis
