CHEME 3900 - Chemical Kinetics and Reactor Design


     
Spring. 3 credits. Letter grades only (no audit).

Prerequisite: CHEME 3130  and CHEME 3240 . Corequisite: CHEME 3320 .

S. Li.

Study of chemical reaction kinetics and principles of reactor design for chemical processes.

Outcome 1: Develop a sound fundamental (molecular level) understanding of chemical reaction kinetics. (a, b, e, k)

Outcome 2: Develop practical approaches to modeling complex reactions to obtain a rate equation; (1) identify dominant effects and estimate the consequences of neglecting secondary effects, (2) test assumptions and assess predictions, and (3) perform numerical analysis. (a ,b, c, e, k)

Outcome 3: Develop the ability to construct from first principles mathematical models to predict system behavior. (a, c, e, k)

Outcome 4: Develop approaches to optimize reactor design with regard to multiple performance criteria. (a, c, e, k)
