Introduction to Chemical Reaction Engineering

Description

The course treats: Gas- and liquid phase reactions in ideal reactors, including reactor chains and recirculation reactors. Catalytic reactions in combination with physical transport inside catalyst pellets. Bioreaction kinetics and reactors. Multiple reactions and choice of reactor type and proces conditions for optimal production. Coupling of the energy and mass balance for reactors. The exercises illustrate mainly the applications within chemical, biochemical and pharmaceutical production and environmental technology. The course content is especially relevant for sustainable production (efficient use of raw materials, low waste production) and low environmental impact. Not applicable together with: 28342
