Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to create a comprehensive view of heterogeneous catalysis. Attention is focused on the problems of thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, the influence of mass transport on the chemical reaction rate, the mechanism, the preparation of the catalyst and the description of the rate of reaction in the chemical reactor. The aim of the course is also focusing to solve specific problems / examples of heterogeneous catalysis, including modelling of heterogeneous catalytic reactions.
Student should be able to know the basic concepts of heterogeneous catalysis. Student should be able to independently solve the complex problems involved in heterogeneous catalysis.
