Numerical Comparison of Chemical ReactorsSafety Criteria

摘要

The boundary safety criterion, which can be applied when the reaction kineticinformation is scarce, has been compared to the model-based safety criteria: thedivergence criterion and the criterion of derivatives, respectively. The results obtainedfor a homogeneous liquid reaction carried out in a semibatch stirred tank reactor fullyconfirm abilities of this boundary safety criterion to predict safe operating conditions.
