A theoretical study of a controlled‐cycled stirred‐tank reactor

A theoretical study of a controlled‐cycled stirred‐tank reactor A mathematical study was carried out for a stirred reactor in which the feed and product streams were periodically interrupted. The cycled reactor proved superior to a continuous stirred‐tank reactor for first‐ and second‐order reactions, and surpassed a plug‐flow reactor for those cases in which the reaction rate passes through a maximum, such as autocatalytic and exothermic adiabatic reactions. Temperature‐programmed cycled reactors were also studied, but appeared to have little advantage over conventional reactors. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Aiche Journal Wiley

Abstract

A mathematical study was carried out for a stirred reactor in which the feed and product streams were periodically interrupted. The cycled reactor proved superior to a continuous stirred‐tank reactor for first‐ and second‐order reactions, and surpassed a plug‐flow reactor for those cases in which the reaction rate passes through a maximum, such as autocatalytic and exothermic adiabatic reactions. Temperature‐programmed cycled reactors were also studied, but appeared to have little advantage over conventional reactors.
