In this paper, we present the approximate solutions of the time fractional chemical engineering equations by means of the variational iteration method (VIM) and homotopy perturbation method (HPM). The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. The solutions of the chemical reactor, reaction, and concentration equations are calculated in the form of convergent series with easily computable components. We compared the HPM against the VIM; an additional comparison will be made against the conventional numerical method. The results show that HPM is more promising, convenient, and efficient than VIM.
