Fundamentals of Environmental Kinetics and Reaction Engineering


Description:
The goal of this session is to solicit fundamental contributions in areas of Chemical Kinetics and Chemical Reaction Engineering intimately related to the Environment. Both experimental and theoretical contributions are sought. Some suggested topics: detailed chemical kinetic mechanisms, cfd based reactor design, attainable region based environmental reactor network synthesis, kinetics and reactor design for "green" chemistries.
