Kinetics-Reactor Design - Non-Isothermal Reactors

via YouTube

Overview

This course on Kinetics/Reactor Design: Non-Isothermal Reactors aims to teach the differences between Kinetics and Thermodynamics, activation energy, heat of reaction, adiabatic reactors, reactors with heat exchange, and multiple steady-states. The course covers topics such as chemical equilibrium, energy balances in various reactor types, heat transfer rates, and reactor runaway scenarios. The teaching method includes screencasts with corrected closed captioning, and the intended audience includes students and professionals interested in chemical engineering, reactor design, and kinetics.
