You will learn how to combine the various tools acquired in transport classes, thermodynamics, chemistry and this class to design reaction schemes for a variety of different processes. Kinetics is one of the main reasons for the chemistry in chemical engineering. In order to achieve these goals, weekly quizzes will be given to test knowledge of the theory presented in the text and class. Projects and homework will be assigned to develop your ability to utilize this knowledge. Exams of course will cover all the material assigned.
Quizzes are closed book.
Exams are open book closed notes, etc. I will drop the lowest quiz grade. Miss an exam or quiz without a valid excuse and you get a zero. Requests for re-grades must be made within 48 hours of exam. I expect you to work in small groups to complete the homework, but I will not accept outright copies.
