Course description and aims

Using the example of the boundary of material and energy movement in a specific chemical reactor, we learn about the principles of material exchange, principles of reactor and reaction operation in various processes and, based on this, study the reaction and reactor operation in a production process. Firstly, we deal with chemical reactions ranging from simple to complex, also liquid phase Hitoshi phase reactions to non-Hitoshi phase reaction at the solid surface. Continuing, we explain the adjustment of a reactant, and unit operations for separation and mechanical operations. Moreover, the course covers the energy required for chemical reactors and for material transfer operations.

Student learning outcomes

Understanding material flow and exchange on the Earth is also relevant to solving environmental problems, proper maintenance of ecosystems, and constructing a sustainable society. In addition industrial applications of chemical reactors and design have a close link with our lifestyle. It is also possible to regard the earth as a large chemical reactor involving material transfer. The basic knowledge of reaction engineering includes learning precisely about the boundary between material and energy movement, quantitative treatment of various types of chemical reactions, and basic and applied knowledge of material and energy movement in a chemical reaction.
