431 Reactions in Near-Critical and Supercritical Fluids

Tuesday, November 10, 2015: 3:15 PM - 5:45 PM
355F (Salt Palace Convention Center)

Description:
This session focuses on new experimental and theoretical investigations of chemical reactions and reaction engineering that occur within supercritical or high-pressure media, including near-critical fluids and gas-expanded liquids. Some areas of interest are homogeneous and heterogeneous catalytic reactions, biphasic systems, innovative reaction/separation schemes which take advantage of the variable solvent power of SCFs, and continuous reactions in high-pressure media.
