Computational Chemistry and Chemical EngineerinG cover

This book provides a wide-ranging and up-to-date description of state-of-the-art computational methodologies in chemistry and chemical engineering. It displays a representative mix of topics on the computation and modeling of chemical systems of all sizes, from the very small (atomic) to the very large (industrial). The book constitutes an excellent overview for graduate students as well as a critical update for researchers.
