I had the honor of meeting Professor Fogler in person in 2017, he signed my book and impressed me that he wrote my name perfectly! since he was always very close to the mexican institue of chemical engineers. Although I knew him for a very short time, I can say that Professor Fogler was a very kind, patient, fun and forward-thinking person. Rest in peace dear Professor.
Fogler's book is great for getting the understanding and concepts within reaction engineering. Levenspiel's book is then great when it comes to applying the theory.
ChemE graduate here that remembers this book as a HUGE standout. Easily the best book I ran into--the no bullshit style really taught me well. Thanks for your channel as well--I definitely owe some of my degree to you man!
RIP, Dr. Fogler, who mentored one of our faculty. As I sit here in my academic office, I have Fogler's book, Levenspiel's book (the one I learned from before the asteroid killed off the dinos), and Hill and Root, all on my desk. Each has its own strength, but Fogler's remains my go-to text when building assignments for kinetics-oriented lab experiments for seniors.
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy The kinetics-oriented lab experiments are part of the Unit Operations Laboratory course, which includes experiments in separations and process dynamics/control as well.
My old undergraduate supervisor told a story about meeting Fogler in his office. Apparently Fogler was sitting at his desk, with nothing but a pen in his hand and a single piece of paper, on which he was slowly writing. "I write it once, and I write it right," he said, "no need for any revisions". It's a great story. But I'm a Levenspiel man through and through.
I have done 2 Masters in Chemical/ Process and Energy Engineering degrees from Germany and working very hard to get job offer...still I am struggling...I like your videos and information you share...
Thanks Kiffi! Good luck in Germany... Its a great place to work, unfortunately due to pandemic it might not be so easy... Just keep sending applicaitons (I sent 400-500 apps and got 3 interviews, 2 offers, 1 job)
Best books for math. What kind of math is the most useful for chem engineeres to know and master? Which are the math skills that are most on demand that give the edge in finding job?
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy Stewart's Calculus is an excellent undergraduate calculus book (perhaps the best), but might not have enough applications and advanced material (specifically differential equations a linear algebra) for a chemical engineer. If the engineer needs to review basic differential and integral calculus concepts and techniques, go for it.
I have just obtained that book to improve my knowledge about chemical reactors, this video is a gift to start with my new path. Thank you Emmanuel! Hope that in future you'll make a similar video, maybe about columns and similar ;) Good job as always! See you!
Nice Davide, let me know how it goes! I will consider Unit Operations by McCabe in my next vids, you may like it as it will talk about those topics (columns, heater, etc)
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy I think i used some "illegal" sections of McCabe while i was at university and they were very detailed, I am intrested how the entire book is, can't wait! You think it would worth to buy them also for job utilization, or these volumes are just for studying? Maybe also others are interested in this, let me know what you think! ☺
@@davidevicenzi2071 Well... those are good fundamentals, but its just a sneak peak to several unit operations, I would rather stick to one book that covers a type of unit operation (i.e. scrubbers, gas absorption, distillation or so) vs. a book that covers a little of a lot unit operations.
El "Levine" es bueno también, me acuerdo de haber estudiado para hacer el bce de calor y materia en un TAD con catalizador. Ese es un librazo por supuesto. Cheers from a "country" called Argentina 😉, great channel for all the CE. Aguante el chavo del 8.
Thanks for your kind comments. As stated, I will be making more Book Review for Chemical & Process Engineers!
Coulson & Richardson's books all volumes definitely for chemical engineer undergrads

Thats awesome... It would be great to have his signature or dedication in my book :(
This brings back memories. I wished there was a channel like this back when I studied. Keep up the great work!
Thanks my friend. We suffered a lot on those great times. When are you going back to Monterrey?
Fogler's book is great for getting the understanding and concepts within reaction engineering. Levenspiel's book is then great when it comes to applying the theory.
Indeed, Levenspiel is a great way to complement your learning of Reactor Engineering!

EXACTLY, direct to the point, no fancy stuff, just a book willing to show and explain concepts
Yes, It is. I still take a look a look at the textbook throughout my complex chemical engineering projects.
Nice to hear that!

Nice to know that you are using great reference material! Do you teach any other subject as well?
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy The kinetics-oriented lab experiments are part of the Unit Operations Laboratory course, which includes experiments in separations and process dynamics/control as well.
Great explanation, keep doing that great job for the community!
Indeed my friend! Thanks for your kind comments, how is the MBA going?

XD both are great authors!

Couldn't agree more! one of the most amazing chemical engineering books I read
Its just awesome, easy to understand, to digest, and to love
Great video! Hoping to watch your next review, sir.
For sure! What other books, authors or topics would you like to see next?
That book.. just got back to my student years... wow
Just like ratatouille

Any Math Book on Differential Equations, Integrals and Derivatives should be fine. I would recommend, on personal experience, James Stewart - Calculus

Very useful thanks

I read somewhere that octave was the professor of fogler
really?
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy yeah I think so
Very useful, glad you are doing a series in this topic
Glad you enjoy it! I really love the topic, and the reviws!
I’m a student of chemical engineering And I have read this book it’s amazing 😉
Great! Which version/ edition?
RIP dear Mr. Fogler!! 🙏🏽🥺

Es correcto, Levine tambien es beno... Un abrazo hasta la bella argentina, tomate un fernet en por mi :)
Best book for dynamic and control process for ChemE in your personal opinion? Thanks for these videos, so helpful.
uff, I owe you that one, to be honest, I've had lots of books on that, many of them good but I haven't find the "best" one
it really depends on what exactly do you want to focus...
Can you share about Chemical Reaction Engineering by Octave Levenspiel
I do not have it!
Muchas gracias por hacer mas fácil entender estos conceptos
Ya te la sabes!
Sir petroleum ether solvent samel remove formula
Yes Fogler, great for reaction kinetic
Indeed =)
Best book (CRE,process control,design)
Indeed!
Which book would you recommend for freshman Chemical eng?
Himmelblau and Felder for Mass and Energy balances
once you get those 2 subjects, all the following should be more digestible
Naptha samel remove formula
Thanks a lot for your efforts!
My pleasure! I'm doing my best!
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy 🌸
Great vedio, r u gonna continue to explain another material like unite operation
For sure... which book or author do you want to check outç?
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy unite operation of chemical engineering seventh edition, when r u going to start, by the way i can help u if you want
@@ChemicalEngineeringGuy when
Great book review Emmanuel!
A touching tribute to Dr Fogler as well, may he rest in peace.
Thanks! Hoping it helps more students
Hopefully it will!
Fogler! 🙌🏽
The almighty
Very helpful!
Thanks Gio!
You are the man!!
Thanks Luis! I really appreciate it
Excellent video :D
Nice to see you here!
RIP Folger ❤️🩹
Very interestinzouna!
Thanks Luis, really appreciate it
Your book is in spanish XD saludos desde GuADALAJARA!
indeed XD
can you explain how to make crystal meth in my kitchen? thanks!
I don't think UA-cam will allow me XD
Ya devuelve el libro al Berny
haha Will do!
RIP fogler
