Follow step-by-step explanations to understand mathematical models – algebraic and differential equations – of chemical reactors and how numerical models work in computer implementation.

Learn the basics behind current user-friendly tools in numerical simulation and optimization of reactor systems (Python, Matlab, Julia and gPROMS). Discover how to select the right algorithm for specific reactor models from homogenous to multiphase systems and structured reactors in detailed discussions at the end of each chapter.

In this second edition, 20 solved example simulations performed in MATLAB and Python are included for demonstration purposes. Download solutions to exercises in the book: http://web.abo.fi/fak/tkf/tek/cre/.
