CH364 CHEMICAL REACTION ENGINEERING

  • 3.5 credit hours
  • (BS=0.0, ET=3.5, MA=0.0)
  • Version 2026-1
  • In effect
Scope
This course studies the effects of chemical reaction kinetics on systems of engineering significance. It introduces selection and operation of commercial chemical reactors, emphasizing chemical kinetics and transport phenomena. It studies currently practiced engineering techniques associated with each of these reactors. Topics covered in this course include ideal reactors including batch, CSTR and PFR, isothermal and nonisothermal. Other topics may include catalytic reactors, bioreactors, reactors, transient and steady state design, pressure drop in reactors, recycle, stability, and numerical methods.
