Description

This course covers in-depth considerations of the analysis and design of non-isothermal reactors, treatment of variable-density systems, non-catalytic gas-solid reactions (application to minerals processing, pharmaceutics and microelectronic processing), kinetics of heterogeneous reactions, diffusion and reaction in porous crystals, design of fixed bed reactors, trickle-bed and slurry bed reactors.
In addition, there will be a project component on an individual basis. The individual study project is to be chosen in the areas identified by D-Catalysis and E-Chemical Reactions (see School for details).
