CHET-3042: Chemical Reactors & Mixing

Description
This course focuses on chemical reactors used in chemical industries, with an in-depth study of batch, tubular and perfect mixers. Students will learn to perform mass/mole balances and energy balances on reactors, apply design equations based on balanced chemical equations, and apply knowledge to batch and continuous reactors. Students will also solve reactor problems and learn to adjust variables when designing reactors to achieve specific conversions and volumes under certain constraints. Lecture 2 hrs/wk; Lab 3 hrs/wk.
