Environmental Reaction Engineering

Abstract

Chemical reaction engineering problems associated with environmental systems are numerous. Design of gas cleaning absorption processes, waste water treatment facilities, low-emission combustion processes, and catalytic mufflers are typical problems. A review of the state of environmental reaction engineering cannot be accomplished in a chapter of modest length. Rather than attempt a comprehensive review of environmental reaction engineering, therefore, we have chosen to focus here somewhat more narrowly. Specifically, we will discuss several challenging problems in what might be termed atmospheric reaction engineering.
