Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Due to the success of the first edition, in terms of both quantity and quality of the published papers, the editors considered worthful announcing a second edition of The Special Issue “Industrial Chemistry Reactions: Kinetics, Mass Transfer and Industrial Reactor Design.
The impressive progress of commercially available computers allows nowadays to solve complicated mathematical problems in many scientific and technical fields. This revolution invested Chemical Engineering Science in all the comparts. More sophisticated approaches to Catalysis, Kinetics, Reactor Design and Simulation have been developed thanks to the new available powerful calculation methods. It is well known that many chemical reactions of great interest for industrial processes and conducted on a large-scale need information ranging from thermodynamics, kinetics and transport phenomena related to mass, energy and momentum. For a reliable industrial-scale reactor design, all these information must be employed into appropriate equations and mathematical models that allow for accurate and reliable simulations for the scale-up purposes. A challenge is to collect, in a memorable volume, the main advances and trends, in the field of Industrial Chemistry, thank to the contribution of some protagonists of the scientific and technological progress, by reviewing their past activity in the field or giving, through original manuscript, examples of the modern approach to the investigation of Industrial Chemistry Reactions.
Therefore, the aim of this proposed special issue is to collect worldwide contributions from experts in the field of industrial reactors design based on kinetic and mass-transfer studies. In more details the following areas/sections will be covered by the call for reviews and original papers:
- Kinetic studies for complex reaction schemes (multiphase systems);
- Kinetics and mass transfer in multifunctional reactors;
- Reactions in mass-transfer dominated regime (fluid–solid and intraparticle diffusive limitations);
- Kinetics and mass transfer modeling with alternative approaches (e.g., stochastic modeling);
- Pilot plant and industrial-size reactor simulation and scale-up based on kinetic studies (lab-to-plant approach).

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
