This course is not assigned to any module.

Further Information

Courses are together with exams the building blocks for modules. Please keep in mind that information on the contents, learning outcomes and, especially examination conditions are given on the module level only – see section "Assignment to Modules" above.

additional remarks Content: Thermodynamics and Kinetics - Stoichiometry and sequence of a chemical reaction - Thermodynamic aspects of a chemical reaction - Basics in reaction kinetics - Basics in heterogeneous catalysis - Microkinetics in chemical reactions (surface chemistry, formal kinetics in terms of Hougen-Watson kinetics, analytics) - Macrokinetics (microkinetics and mass transfer; effectiveness of a catalyst, regimes of mass transition and pore disffusion) Reaction vessels and process management - types of reactors - micro-/macro mixing and segregation - retension time analysis in ideal reactor types - modelling of real reactor sytems - retension time and reaction - optimisation strategies for simple and complex reactions - heat management in reactors (adiabatic, isothermal, polytropic) Goals - concepts to solve problems in reaction engineering - numerical consideration of problems
