Course Purpose and Content

Course Objectives: To provide students with the skills to define and analyze chemical reactions encountered in determining chemical reactors and models, and to provide them with the skills to choose the appropriate reactor and reaction conditions.
Course Content: Introduction to chemical reaction engineering, Reaction Mechanism, Reaction rate concept, Concentration Concept and Conversion Rate; Collection and analysis of speed data (integral and differential method); Determination of degree of reaction, rate law and reaction rate constant; Initial speed method in evaluating experimental speed data; Creating the stoichiometric table and preparing it for batch and flow reactors; General mole balance; Design and sizing of batch, continuous flow, tubular reactors; Comparison of volumes of reactors and reactor systems; Reversible (Bidirectional) Reactions and their kinetics, Chemical equilibrium; Multi-Step (Multiple) Reactions; Yield and selectivity in Multi-Step Reactions; Reactor design for Multi-Step (Multiple) Reactions; Exothermic and Endothermic reactions; Isothermal and adiabatic reactor design: batch reactor and flow reactors

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1) Will be able to size isothermal flow reactors and batch reactors for homogeneous reactions.
2) They will be able to analyze kinetic data and determine the appropriate rate expression (reaction order and reaction rate expression).
3) They will be able to size steady and non-steady reactors using analytical techniques and computer programs.
4) They will be able to choose the appropriate reactor or reactor system depending on the reaction conditions.
5) They will be able to determine the conditions necessary to increase the selectivity of the desired product in multiple reactions.
