Coordinator:

Professor David Boger and Ms Joan Gravina

Prerequisite/s:

610-033 Chemistry (Chemical Engineering), 421-303 Maths for Engineers Unit 3.1, 411-301 Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics, 411-302 Transport Phenomena 2, 411-303 Fluids/Solids Processing, 411-305 Heat Transfer 1, 411-306 Separation Processes 1, 411-206 Reactor Engineering 1.

Timetable:

Semester 1

Contact:

39 hours

Objectives:

Students successfully completing this subject will be able to:

  • understand how reactor models are developed and analysed, including those for non-ideal flow;

  • understand how real reactors differ in behaviour from ideal flow models;

  • understand the concepts behind heterogeneous reactor behaviour including catalytic reactors.

Content:

Reactor performance and design where multiple reactions occur. Non ideal flow behaviour and comparison with ideal flow reactor models. Reactor performance and design involving heterogeneous systems including catalytic reactors. Performance of fixed bed, moving bed and fluidised bed reactors.

Assessment:

One 2- hour examination at the end of the semester.
