TRANSCRIPT

Chemical Reaction Engineering (CRE) is the field that studies the rates and mechanisms of

chemical reactions and the design of the reactors in which they take place.

Introduction to Catalysts and Catalysis

Catalytic steps

2

A Catalyst is a substance that affects the rate of

chemical reaction but emerges from the process

unchanged.

Catalysis is the occurrence, study, and use of

catalysts and catalytic processes.

Approximately 1/3 of the GNP of materials

produced in the U.S. involves a catalytic process.

Catalysts and Catalysis

4

Catalysts affect both selectivity and yield

Catalysts and Catalysis

Different shapes and sizes of catalyst.

Steps in a Catalytic Reaction

Reactions are not catalyzed over the entire

surface but only at certain active sites or centers

that result from unsaturated atoms in the surface.

An active site is a point on the surface that can

form strong chemical bonds with an adsorbed

atom or molecule.

Active Sites

Active Sites – Ethylidyne on Platinum

Vacant and occupied sites

For the system shown, the total concentration of sites is

Ct = Cv + CA.S + CB.S

1. Select a mechanism (Mechanism Single Site)

Adsorption on Surface: SNSN

Surface Reaction: SISN

Desorption: SISI

Treat each reaction step as an elementary reaction when writing rate laws.

2. Assume a rate-limiting step. Choose the surface reaction first, since more than 75%

of all heterogenous reactions that are not diffusion-

limited are surface-reaction-limited. The rate law for the

surface reaction step is:

3. Find the expression for the concentrations of

the adsorbed species CN.S and CI.S. Use the other steps that are not limiting to

solve for CN.S and CI.S. For this reaction:
