An important challenge brought to chemical engineering by new emerging technologies, in particular then by nano and bio technologies, is to deal with complex systems that cannot be dealt with and cannot be fully understood on a single scale. This volume ofAdvances in Chemical Engineeringprovides a framework for thermodynamic and kinetic modeling of complex chemical systems. Updates and informs the reader on the latest research findings using original reviewsWritten by leading industry experts and scholarsReviews and analyzes developments in the field | Advances in Chemical Engineering by D.
