    The goalObjective is to adopt additional knowledge related to Chemical Reactor Design and to expand knowledge gained in course on Elements of Chemical Reaction Engineering. New learing units include: non-isothermal reactor operation, the concept of non-ideal reactors, design of reactors for catalytic and non-catalytic processes
    The outcomeAfter this course students are capable to solve and analyse most common problems related to analysis of chemical reactor operation, modelling, simulation and also reactor design
