CHE 603 - Chemical Engineering Thermodynamics

Introduction to the statistical foundations of thermodynamic quantities (entropy, pressure, temperature, free energy) and relations. Thermodynamics of multicomponent mixtures including property estimation, phase equilibrium, chemical equilibrium, and combined phase/chemical equilibrium. Estimation of Gibbs energy and fugacity of multicomponent mixtures. Example applications such as: combined phase/chemical equilibrium in chemical reactors, biochemical reactors, and electrolyte solutions.
