Advanced Engineering Chemistry

This completely updated text/reference is designed to present the fundamental principles of chemistry with strong emphasis on experiments, applications, and topics in engineering areas, and the myriad problems created by chemical processes. The three-part structure of the book covers the more advanced topics in applied chemistry including thermodynamics, polymers, fuel combustion, water treatment, and environmental pollution. The book can be used by practicing engineers, chemists, and scientists–or as a text in standard university courses in engineering chemistry, chemical engineering, and chemistry for engineers. Numerous experiments and applications of modern chemical theory, illustrations, in-text examples, and exercise have been included.
