Edwin Niblock Lightfoot, Jr. (September 25, 1925 – October 2, 2017)[1] was an American chemical engineer and Hilldale Professor Emeritus in the department of chemical and biological engineering at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He is known for his research in transport phenomena, including biological mass-transfer processes, mass-transport reaction modeling, and separations processes.[2] He, along with R. Byron Bird and Warren E. Stewart, co-authored the classic textbook Transport Phenomena.[3] In 1974 Lightfoot wrote Transport Phenomena and Living Systems: Biomedical Aspects of Momentum and Mass Transport.[4] He was the recipient of the 2004 National Medal of Science in Engineering Sciences.[5]
