Gas-Liquid Mass Transfer

Uitgebreide vaknaam	Gas-Liquid Mass Transfer
Leerdoelen	At the end of the course, the student is able to: 1) Understand and describe mass transfer in multi-phase systems, i.e. transport from gas to liquid. 2) Understand and describe mass transfer accompanied by chemical reactions, derive the conversion equations that are required to calculate conversion rates at micro-scale. 3) Implement the above-mentioned conversion rates into model reactors. 4) Solve not too complicated reaction engineering problems for multi-phase systems for homogeneous reactions.
Omschrijving	In the chemical, pharmaceutical, food, energy, and product industry respectively multi-phase processes are frequently encountered. Characteristic in all these multi-phase processes is that the reactants that are required for the process are present in different phases, e.g. gas and liquid phase, respectively. Therefore at least one of the reactants has to be transported to the so-called reaction phase. The subjects of this course are the fundamentals of mass transfer and mass transfer accompanied by chemical reactions. Homogeneous reactions, with reactants present in different phases, are dealt with. The focus is to design and calculate the performance of multi-phase reactors. The course Gas-Liquid Mass Transfer is consecutive to the course Reactor Engineering. It is a requirement that the fundamentals of the latter course are well understood before starting with Gas-Liquid Mass Transfer. The student will become familiar with the characteristics of mass transfer parameters, reaction rates, and multi-phase reactors.
