Course content
|
The aim of the course is to broaden students' knowledge of solving complex problems in the field of chemical kinetics, the effect of mass and heat transport on the rate of heterogeneous catalytic reaction, reaction mechanism and mathematical description of the rate of chemical reaction in chemical reactor. Special attention is paid to solving complex problems of description of chemical reaction from different point of view. Depending on the topic of the student's dissertation, the focus is on one of two areas. Firstly, the description of chemical kinetics in one-phase and a mathematical description of the chemical reaction in the reactor. Secondly, the chemical kinetics of heterogeneously catalysed chemical reactions and special cases of the description of the chemical reaction in a reactor in the presence of a solid catalyst. Within the subject matter, only the ideally stirred batch reactor, the fixed-bed reactor and the flow ideally stirred reactor are solved. Emphasis is placed on independent solution of complex problems from above mentioned area. Solving exercises and complex problems in the region of chemical kinetics of liquid phase, gas phase and heterogeneous catalytic reactions.
