| Abstract: |
This is a typical second course in the subject of chemical reaction engineering with an emphasis on heterogeneous reaction engineering and nonideal reactors. Catalysis, mechanistic treatment of rate forms and the practical issues of transport limitations, leading finally to design considerations, form the first part. Kinetics and design of reactors for noncatalytic gas-liquid and fluid-solid reactions follows, and the last part of the course deals with the subject of residence time distributions, and how they can be used to characterize and design non-ideal reactors. The course thus consists of the following modules:
Catalysis and Kinetics of heterogeneous catalytic reactions
Transport effects in catalytic reactors (External and pore diffusion)
Catalytic reactor design
Multiphase reactors (gas-liquid and fluid-solid reactions)
Residence time distributions and nonideal reactors |
Electronics & Communication Engineering
Chemical Reaction Engineering II
