Rate Law, Mechanism, and Rate-Limiting Step, Solid-
catalyzed reaction Data Analysis, Reactor Design, Model
Discrimination, Catalyst Deactivation Reaction Engineering

Topic Learning Outcomes
• Describe the steps in a catalytic mechanism and how one
goes about deriving a rate law and a mechanism and rate
limiting step consistent with the experimental data.
• Use Regression to discriminate between reaction rate
laws and mechanisms.
• Size isothermal reactors for reactions with Langmuir-
Hinschelwood kinetics.
• Discuss the different types of catalyst deactivation and the
reactor types and describe schemes that can help offset
the deactivation.
• Analyze catalyst decay and conversion for CSTRs and
PFRs with temperature-time trajectories, moving bed
reactors, and straight through transport reactors.
• Describe the steps in Chemical Vapor Deposition(CVD).
