The heart of most chemical plants is a chemical reactor. They are described by systems of differential equations. Each of these models can generate complex solutions, including: multiple steady states, periodic, quasiperiodic oscillations or chaos. Analysis of this equations requires the use of sophisticated mathematical methods and complex numerical algorithms. In this study these phenomena and methods of analysis were presented. Particular attention is paid to the chaotic oscillations and fractals. Different methods were presented which were used to solve above mention problems. The following concepts as: bifurcation, Lyapunov's exponent, Lyapunov's time and power spectrum were used for this purpose. Presentation of these phenomena on bifurcation diagrams and phase planes give fractal images. It has also been shown that chaos can be predictable. This study is based on the author's own research cycle. This book is an extension of my book entitled "Fractals, bifurcations and chaos in chemical reactors" from 2014 (LAP).
