ABSTRACT
Chemical and biochemical reaction engineering contains many complicated mechanisms. Many investigators have studied kinetic aspects of reactions. Also biochemical reactions are becoming important due to their advantages such as low activation energy and specificity. Many investigators have studied equivalence between chemical structures and graphical structures. The chemical formulae in chemistry resembles the graphical structures. Various papers based on graph theory related to scheduling concepts, computer science applications are also studied by investigators. The use graph theory in chemical engineering is very handy and effective tool. Current review summarizes research and studies on graph theory related to chemistry and chemical reaction engineering.
Key words: Covalent structure, chemical kinetics, equilibrium, mathematical chemistry.
