Original study plan Bachelor's programme Technical Chemistry 2012W
Objectives The lecture is divided into three parts. In the first part an introduction in kinetics of chemical reactions will be presented, followed by an introduction in catalysis (enzymes, technical catalysts etc.), finalized in a third part focusing on chemical reaction engineering (types of reactors etc.)
Subject Kinetics:

  1. Transport processes, chemical kinetics
  2. Basics of chemical kinetics
    reaction rate, reaction kinetics, reaction order
  3. Formal kinetics / basic reactions
    reactions of order 0, 1 and 2, incomplete reactions, temperature dependence
  4. Experimental determination of the reaction order
  5. Complex reaction
    parallel reaction, consecutive reaction, reversible reaction
    quasi stationarity, upstream equilibrium
    chain branches and explosion
  6. Theory of reaction rate
    impact theory, theory of the transitional state
  7. Reactions in diverse media
    gas phase reactions, reactions in solution, diffusion controlled reactions

Catalysis:

  1. Introduction
  2. History
  3. Enzymes and biocatalysis
  4. Homogeneous und heterogeneous catalysis
  5. Kinetics of catalysed reactions
  6. Adsorption in heterogeneous catalysis
  7. Mass transport in heterogeneous catalysis
  8. Conversion and yield
  9. Activity and selectivity of catalysts
  10. Stability of catalysts
  11. Catalysis in chemical reactors
  12. Acid-base catalysis
  13. Catalysis in industry
  14. Newest developments in catalyst research

Reaction engineering:

  1. Basic types of chemical reactors
  2. Ideal, isothermal run reactors
  3. Series of stirred tanks and recycling
  4. Kinetic data obtained by laboratory tests
  5. Real reactors
  6. Non-isothermal reactors
  7. Mass transfer and mass transport
  8. Criteria for the selection of chemical reactors
Criteria for evaluation Written examination
