This book is aimed at undergraduate students of natural applied sciences like biotechnology, biochemistry, environmental sciences, nutrition & dietetics, and related studies. The main idea is to present the basic concepts and tools in a simple, didactic but rigorous way, focusing on practical aspects of these important disciplines. Thus, the methodology is problem-solving oriented. In the text, each Chapter is preceded by a very brief theoretical introduction where the main definitions, fundamental laws and equations are presented. Following the introduction, the most important concepts are developed and illustrated via the detailed solution of a number of selected problems. Special attention is paid to specific topics with applications in biology, applied chemistry, environmental science, etc. The aim of this book is to provide the basic contents and skills required by an undergraduate student of higher education institutions where thermodynamics and kinetics are not the core of the training but are rather meant to be useful tools.
