Course description and aims

The chemical process consists of the reaction and separation units, in which the chemical reaction unit is one of the most important units. In Chemical Reaction Engineering II, we deeply learn Chemical Reaction Engineering, by developing the basic knowledge of Chemical Reaction Engineering I. First, the reactor with recycle system and the reactors in series (composing of CSTR and PFR) are explained. Second, the design methods for several-types of reactors are provided, where the multi-component reaction and non-ideal flow reaction proceed.

Student learning outcomes

By the end of this course, students will be able to:
1) Understand the basics in the reactor design with recycle system
2) Understand the basics in the reactor design with series of reactor system
3) Understand the reactor design in multiple reaction system
4) Understand basics of the non-isothermal reaction

Keywords

Mass-balance, Reaction rate, Reactor design, Reversible reaction, self-catalytic reaction, multi-component reaction, Non-isothermal reaction system

Competencies that will be developed

Specialist skills Intercultural skills Communication skills Critical thinking skills Practical and/or problem-solving skills

Class flow

Required learning should be completed outside of the classroom for preparation and review purpose.
In every class, a summary of the previous lecture is given.
Towards the end of class, students are given exercise problems related to what is taught on that day to solve.
