Research Interests

Professor Fogler has graduated 38 Ph.D. students from his research group and has published more than 200 research publications. He and his students are well-known for their work in chemical reaction engineering in petroleum engineering, which encompasses a number of fundamental chemical engineering areas, specifically; reaction engineering, colloids, and multiphase flow. Research topics include: flow, reaction, and precipitation; kinetics of wax deposition; fused chemical reactions; gelation kinetics; asphaltene deposition kinetics and remediation; colloidal phenomena; and catalyzed dissolution of minerals. In addition to funding by government agencies, an industrial affiliates program consisting of major oil companies has supported the research on flow and reaction in porous media for the past 26 years. A number of research results are now being used in industrial applications.

Publications

Professor Fogler is the author of Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering, which is estimated to be used by approximately 75% of all chemical engineering programs in the United States and is the dominant book world wide. The fourth edition (2005) of the book was published with an interactive CD-ROM containing Living Example Problems, Interactive Computer Modules, Interactive Lecture Notes, A Professional Reference Shelf, Web Modules on both standard (Membrane Reactors) and novel (Cobra Bites) applications of chemical reaction engineering. The 3rd edition was recently translated into Spanish and into Portuguese. He and Professor Steven LeBlanc are co-authors of Strategies for Creative Problem Solving, which won Meriam-Wiley Distinguished Author Award from ASEE in 1996. A research monograph "Migration of Fines in Porous Media," co-authored by K. Khilar, was published by Kluwer in 1998.
