Course Objectives and Description:
This course aims at making students acquire sufficient knowledge about chemical reactions. This is to be accomplished by studying fundamentals of thermodynamics and kinetics chemistry of chemical reaction kinetic for homogeneous reactions, speed of reactions, single-stage reactors, continuous-stirred tank reactor, pipe reactor, time of its stay and measurements. Reactor performance in terms of input various such as temp and pressure is covered through the course. The selectivity and yield of multiple reactions is covered as well.
