 Aims
To master chemical kinetics as a fundamental discipline for the design of chemical processes.
Main themes
Classification of reaction kinetics and chemical reactors.
Formal kinetics of isolated reactions.
Analysis methods for order-dependent reaction kinetics.
Continuous and discontinuous ideal reactors.
Formal kinetics of parallel and consecutive reactions.
Heterogeneous catalysis.
Acid-base catalysis and enzymatic catalysis.
Polycondensation.
Reactions involving solid reactants.
Radical chain reactions.
Content and teaching methods
The first part of the course is devoted to formal kinetics while the second focuses on kinetic modeling of industrially relevant reactions. The theoretical analysis is illustrated by problems and case studies.
Other information (prerequisite, evaluation (assessment methods), course materials recommended readings, ...)
The evaluation is based on an oral examination and a written solution to problems.
