CHE 431-1
Wyatt Tenhaeff
TR 12:30PM - 1:45PM
|
This course combines the concepts of mass balances, reaction rates, stoichiometry, and chemical equilibrium to introduce the fundamentals of chemical reactor design. Isothermal, uncatalyzed homogeneous reactions are considered initially, but more complex reactions, including heterogeneous, catalyzed reactions and biological reactions are also considered. Approaches to kinetic data acquisition and analysis techniques are presented, and then combined with knowledge of reaction mechanisms or the pseudo-state hypothesis to develop nonelementary rate laws. The course ends with nonisothermal reactor design.

The course will familiarize the student with important modern concepts in electrochemical engineering. The first half of the course focuses on understanding the theory behind fundamental electrochemical processes. It covers mass transfer in homogeneous and heterogeneous systems, thermodynamics, charged interfaces, electron transfer kinetics, and electrochemical methods. The second half of the course introduces advanced applications, with topics including electrocatalysis and electrolysis, corrosion, photoelectrochemical devices, and flow batteries. It enables the student to quantitatively and qualitatively assess problems and empirical data from the literature, and to summarize and explain seminal and recent electrochemical engineering literature and technologies. Pre-requisites are CHE 244 and CHE 225 for CHE majors or instructor permission for non-CHE majors .

|
This course will acquaint the student with advanced topics in chemical kinetics and reactor design. The first half of the course will focus on kinetics from a molecular point of view, including kinetic theory of gases, collision theory and activated complex theory. The second half of the course will transition into reactor design, with topics including surface reactions and catalysis, effects of transport limitations on reaction rate and non-ideal flow in reactors. The course will conclude with emphasis on current literature in the field including applications of heterogeneous catalysis, electrocatalysis and photocatalysis.

Hani Awad
TR 11:05AM - 12:20PM
|
This course teaches the principles of modern cell and tissue engineering with a focus on understanding and manipulating the interactions between cells and their environment. After a brief overview of Cell and Tissue Engineering, the course covers 5 areas of the field. These are: 1) Physiology for Tissue Engineering; 2) Bioreactors and Biomolecule Production; 3) Materials for Tissue Engineering; 4) Cell Cultures and Bioreactors and 5) Drug Delivery and Drug Discovery. Within each of these topics the emphasis is on analytical skills and instructors will assume knowledge of chemistry, mass transfer, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and physiology consistent with the Cell and Tissue Engineering Track in BME. In a term project, students must present written and oral reports on a developing or existing application of Cell and Tissue Engineering. The reports must address the technology behind the application, the clinical need and any ethical implications. YOU MUST REGISTER FOR A RECITATION AND A LABWHEN REGISTERING FOR THE MAIN COURSE. Prerequisites: BME 260, CHE225 (or ME123), CHE243 (or ME225), CHE244 and one of the following Cell Biology courses: BME211, BME411, BIO202 or BIO210; or permission of instructor.

The course is a process simulation course that covers material related to the conception and design of chemical processes. It requires the extensive use of computational methods/tools. The first half pf the course covers: heat exchanger network analysis using the pinch method for energy and environmentally efficient process design, the Problem Table algorithm, MER design using stream splitting and column integration in flow-sheets, grand composite curve development and its use for waste heat recovery by steam -raising, the formulation of the energy system design problem in terms of linear programming. The second part of the course will focus upon modeling process flowsheet dynamics, an integral part of the design process. The ability to use computational software packages like MATHEMATICA/MATLAB/EXCEL/ PYTHON will be expected in many of the homework assignments Course runs the second half of the semester, starts March 13th
