What you’ll be able to do

  • Describe the fundamental physical and chemical mechanisms that drive the performance of phase transfer processes, chemical transformation processes, and physical separation processes

  • Describe the influence of physical and chemical mechanisms on performance of the above processes

  • Describe the fundamental hydraulic mechanisms of batch and flow-through reactors and the influence of these mechanisms on performance of the above processes

  • Draw process flow diagrams and use them in deriving mathematical models that predict reactor performance

  • List assumptions used in the derivation of mathematical models and list the limitations of the resulting models

  • Conduct experiments and interpret results using derived mathematical models combined with statistical analysis methods such as nonlinear regression

  • Describe limitations in experimental design and their effect on interpretation of data
