Description
Chemical Processes Fundamentals provides essential foundational knowledge in thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, and chemical reaction engineering. It equips readers with the tools necessary for a rational understanding of chemical processes and the unit operations that comprise them.
Key topics include thermodynamic principles for pure fluids and mixtures, material and energy balances, reaction equilibrium (including systems with useful work), phase equilibrium in multicomponent systems, chemical kinetics, and the fundamentals of reaction engineering. Each chapter features detailed derivations, experimental observations, and worked examples, delivering practical insights into process solutions and real-world applications.
Designed primarily for undergraduate students in Chemical Engineering, this book also serves as a valuable reference for professionals seeking a comprehensive review of principles applied to chemical process analysis and design.

Combinatorial Group Theory
This is an annotated collection of over 200 open problems in combinatorial group theory. One can say that most of the problems are closer in spirit to the "purely combinatorial" group theory. However, the authors included several problems with geometric flavour where they felt this was natural. Approximately 20 years ago, a new direction in group theory began to emerge...Paperback$18400Unit price /UnavailableAvailableShips in 2-3 weeks -

About the Author
Matteo Maestri is a Full Professor of Chemical Engineering at Politecnico di Milano, Italy. He earned his Laurea in Chemical Engineering with honors in 2004 and completed his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering and Industrial Chemistry summa cum laude in 2008. Since 2023, Matteo has served as Vice-Director for Research at the Department of Energy at Politecnico di Milano and as the Rector’s Delegate for international programs for young researchers. Matteo’s academic career is marked by extensive international experience. He was a visiting scholar at the University of Delaware, USA (2006–2007), an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow at the Fritz-Haber-Institute of the Max Planck Society in Berlin, Germany (2009–2010), and a researcher at the Department of Chemistry at TUM, Munich, Germany (2011). His research centers on the intersection of chemistry and chemical engineering with energy and sustainability, focusing particularly on catalytic kinetics and multiscale modeling of catalytic processes. His work spans atomistic simulations (DFT), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), kinetic analysis, and operando spectroscopy techniques, including operando Raman and UV-vis. Matteo has received numerous accolades, including the TUM Ambassador honorary title from TUM Munich in 2021 and the Gian Paolo Chiusoli Gold Medal in Catalysis from the Italian Chemical Society in 2022. He has also led several prestigious research projects, including three ERC grants: an ERC Starting Grant (2015) and two ERC Proof-of-Concept Grants (2020 and 2022).
