The Second Edition of Introduction to Electrochemical Science and Engineering outlines the basic principles and techniques used in the development of electrochemical engineering related technologies, such as fuel cells, electrolyzers, and flow-batteries. Covering topics from electrolyte solutions to electrochemical energy conversion systems and corrosion, this revised and expanded edition provides new educational material to help readers familiarize themselves with some of today’s most useful electrochemical concepts. The Second Edition includes a new Appendix C with a detailed description of how the most common electrochemical laboratories can be organized, what data should be collected, and how the data should be treated and presented in a report. Video demonstrations for these laboratories are available on YouTube. In addition, the author has added conceptual and numerical exercises to all of the chapters to help with the understanding of the book material and to extend the important aspects of the electrochemical science and engineering. Finally, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is now used in most electrochemical laboratories, and so a new section briefly describes this technique in Chapter 7.

This new edition

Ensures readers have a fundamental knowledge of the core concepts of electrochemical science and engineering, such as electrochemical cells, electrolytic conductivity, electrode potential, and current–potential relations related to a variety of electrochemical systems

Develops the initial skills needed to understand an electrochemical experiment and successfully evaluate experimental data without visiting a laboratory

Promotes an appreciation of the capabilities and applications of key electrochemical techniques

Features eight lab descriptions and instructions that can be used to develop the labs by instructors for a university electrochemical engineering class

Integrates eight online videos with lab demonstrations to advise instructors and students on how the labs can be carried out

Features a solutions manual for adopting instructors

The Second Edition is an ideal and unique text for undergraduate engineering and science students and readers in need of introductory-level content. Graduate students and engineers looking for a quick introduction to the subject will benefit from the simple structure of this book. Instructors interested in teaching the subject to undergraduate students can immediately use this book without reservation.
