Courses taught by Professor Wong
CHBE 390: Kinetics and Reactor Design
-
Credit: 4 units
Overview: General areas that are covered in this course are (1) principles of chemical kinetics; (2) analysis of reaction rate data; (3) heterogeneous catalysis; (4) ideal reactor design and sizing; and (5) heat effects in reactor design. The course includes a hands-on, team-oriented laboratory module on heterogeneous catalysis (Fall Semester)
Required textbook: H. S. Fogler, Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering, 4th Ed. (2006)
CHBE 443: Chemical Engineering Lab II
Lab module: heat exchanger (Fall Semester)
Objective: To learn the basics of heat exchan
CHBE 590: Catalysis and Reaction Engineering
-
Credit: 3 units
Overview: This course covers advanced concepts in chemical kinetics, reaction/transport processes, reactor design, and heterogeneous catalysis. Relevant and timely topics will be discussed as case studies. (Spring Semester)
CHBE 630: Chemical Engineering of Nanostructured Materials
-
Credit: 3 units
Overview: The science and engineering of nanomaterials synthesis will be presented, beginning with the fundamentals of colloid chemistry. Classes of nanomaterials will be discussed in the integrated context of synthesis-structure-property relationships. (Spring Semester)
