Outline and Purpose of the Course The following contents are covered:
- Kinetic analysis of gas-solid-catalyst reaction, gas-solid reaction, CVD reaction, and enzymatic reaction,
- Operation and design of reactors for gas-solid-catalyst and gas-solid reactions, and
- Industrial reactors including fixed bed, fluidized bed, moving bed, simulated moving bed, and stirred tank types.
Course Goals To understand kinetic analysis of chemical reactions utilized in the industry and procedure to design and operate industrial reactors.
Schedule and Contents Gas-solid-catalyst reaction (1) Overview,1time,Commercial catalysts and industrial gas-solid-catalyst reactions are overviewed. Chemical reaction engineering fundamentals of the gas-solid-catalyst reaction is explained.
Gas-solid-catalyst reaction (2) Generalized effectiveness factor and selectivity in complex reactions,1time,The generalized effectiveness factor and the selectivity affected by mass transfer are explained.
Gas-solid-catalyst reaction (3) Deactivation and regeneration of catalyst,2times,Deactivation mechanisms of solid catalysts are overviewed. The deactivation and consequent change in selectivity are explained in terms of the decay function and specific activity.
Gas-solid-catalyst reaction (4) Design and operation of industrial catalytic reactors,1time,Industrial catalytic reactors including fixed-bed and fluidized-bed reactors are overviewed. Design and operation of these reactors including thermal stability are explained.
