CHEG 610 Advanced Chemical Reaction Engineering

This course examines theory and practice on chemical reaction systems with an emphasis on the advanced application of mass and heat transfer and fluid mechanics in real reactors. The subject starts with the review of ideal reactors with different reactions and under different operation conditions, then focus on the steady/unsteady/multiple reactions with external energy exchange (start-up and run-away); modelling of heterogeneous catalytic reaction processes with various control steps; residence time distribution and mixing kinetic models for the design of real reactor; real reactors with multiphase reaction systems.
