| A1.1 |
Analyse experimental chemical data and obtain laws and kinetic models. Use experimental data to calculate the parameters of a rate equation. Postulate the material and energy balances in a system involving a chemical reaction and develop basic mathematic models for reactors. Use analytical and numerical resolution to establish the dimensions of isothermic and non-isothermic discontinuous, semi-continuous and continuous reactors Analyse the behaviours of the different types of reactors when used individually or combined with each other. Develop and resolve models for two-phase and three-phase heterogeneous reactors | |
