0309-340 - Reaction Engineering I

Institution:

Rochester Institute of Technology

Subject:

Description:

The course provides the fundamental principles of chemical kinetics in single phase systems and their mathematical formalization from a continuum, micro-scale viewpoint. Topics include mass action kinetics and absolute rate theory, series and parallel reaction systems, and the mathematical modeling of various reactor confi gurations under idealized conditions. Well-mixed and continuous, plug fl ow reactor systems are analyzed for both single and multiple reaction systems. Continuous versus batch operation under isothermal and adiabatic conditions are examined. (0309-230, 1016-306 or equivalent, and 1016-305 recommended) Class 4, Credit 4 (F)
