Course content
Chemical reaction engineering involves controlling chemical reactions, and designing and operating reaction apparatus and reaction systems. Chemical reactions do not always occur in environments with a constant temperature and concentration; rather, they often exhibit their own temperature and concentration distributions. If reaction speed is dependent on the temperature of the reactive site and the concentration of the reactant, it is necessary to understand the mechanism by which these distributions are determined. Therefore, a quantitative approach to understanding the mechanism of reaction speed within the chemical reaction apparatus will be pursued. The earth can be viewed as a massive reaction apparatus in which various types of reactions such as combustion reactions and photochemical reactions are occurring at various places. An understanding of these processes is valuable, especially if one wishes to resolve environmental problems. As well, it is possible to view the living body as a complex reaction apparatus in which enzyme reactions and radical reactions etc. are taking place. Students should acquire an understanding in this area if they wish to proceed to the bio fields.
