Reaction Calorimetry in the Chemical Industry

This webinar focuses on applications and the importance of mixing and reaction calorimetry in the chemical process industry. A series of industrial case studies on the fundamentals of scale-up are presented.

During this presentation on mixing and reaction calorimetry, Ray Machado provides guidance and shares his experience on broad technical topics, including:

Scale-up of Chemical Reactions
Mass and Heat Transfer
Applied Reaction Calorimetry
Hydrogenation
Propoxylation
Oxidation
Polymerization

Moderator: Ray Machado PhD, Air Products & Chemicals, Inc., rm2 Technologies LLC

Duration: 37 Minutes

Language: English

Reaction calorimetry evaluates the heat discharged from a physical process or chemical reaction under process-like environments and delivers information on the kinetics of the reaction and thermochemistry.
