Introduction to kinetics and reactor design

Catalog description

Introduction to kinetics and reactor design. Identification and comparison of different reactors. Application of rate laws, pseudo steady-state, quasi-equilibrium, and other non-reactive components to develop mathematical models describing different types of reactor systems. Analysis of reaction kinetics in the context of reactor design, and determination of rate laws and reaction mechanisms. Assessment and troubleshooting of reactors by identifying sources of deviations. Application of concepts of reactor design to questions in different fields such as ecology and epidemiology.
