Chemical Reaction Engineering

Credits: 3

Prerequisites: CH 160/CH 161 CHE 221

This course focuses on modeling batch, semi-batch, continuously stirred tank reactors (CSTR), plug flow reactors (PFR) and packed bed reactors. Initially, isothermal, isobaric, single reaction systems are studied and the basics of kinetics are covered. The second portion of the class focuses on topics including heat effects, catalytic reactors, pressure drop through packed beds, biological systems, micro-reactors, and membrane reactors.
