Enthalpy of reaction and standard entlialpy of reaction are not always employed in engineering reaction/combustioii calculations. The two other terms tliat hai C been used are tlie gross (or liighcr) heating value and tlie net (or lower) heating value. These arc discussed later in this Section.

Reactions [Al] and [A2] show the steps of the chemical process used to extract energy from sodium borohydride. [Al] is the simple hydrolysis of sodium borohydride to form hydrogen gas [A2] is the oxidation of that hydrogen gas, either in a fuel cell or in an internal combustion engine. Reaction [A3] is the overall process, and is equal to the sum ofReactions [Al] and [A2].

Choosing a reactor for a given reaction is based on several considerations and combines reaction analysis with reactor analysis. Thus, we consider in this chapter the following aspects of reactions and reactors, much of which should serve as an introduction to chemists and a refresher to chemical engineers reaction rates, stoichiometry, rate equations, and the basic reactor types. 

Within the EC 3 class, the subclasses 1 and 3, which encompass enzymes working on ester and peptide bonds, respectively, are the most explored, in terms of known sources, protein characterization, enzyme production, protein engineering, reaction optimization, and industrial applications [13]. Despite being... 

This crucial step in the design of the chemical plant involves all subareas of chemical engineering reaction engineering, thermodynamics, process control, unit operations and transport, and material and energy balances. Each is applied to put details into the six general sections of the GBFD—reactor feed preparation, reactor, separator feed preparation, separator, recycle, and environmental control. 

To scale-up a process from the laboratory to the pilot plant the development chemist must have an appreciation of chemical engineering principles. Understanding of heat transfer and mass transfer is essential in the successful scale-up of a new process. To control the temperature witii respect to time is one of the most important aspects of chemical engineering. Reaction temperatures must be controlled in order to ensure selectivity of the process, reproduce results accurately and to prevent thermal runaways. Heat transfer is not only important in the reaction but in the work up as well. For example, to control the temperature during exothermic neutralizations, crystallizations, and distillations. In many chemical processes the rate of external heating may not be important, but the rate of external cooling can be very critical when exotherms take place.
