Contents: Chemical kinetics. Reaction mechanisms for homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions. Laboratory investigations in batch and flow reactors, determination of the rate equation. Calculation of ideal reactor size and optimum temperature progression. Heterogeneous catalysis and catalytic reactors. Important industrial reactor types and processes, calculations on industrial reactors.
