What is Chemical Reaction Engineering
(CRE) ?
Understanding how chemical reactors work lies at the heart of
almost every chemical processing operation.

Chemical Reaction
• A detectable number of molecules have lost their identity
and assumed a new form by a change in the kind or number
of atoms in the compound and/or by a change in the atoms’
configuration
• Decomposition
• Combination
• Isomerization
• Rate of reaction
– How fast a number of moles of one chemical species are
being consumed to form another chemical species
