Optimal reactor systems for Van de Vusse reaction scheme with multicomponent feed
In the present paper, product yield in the Van de Vusse reaction scheme with multicomponent feed has been studied. The optimal reactor structures have been found by investigating optimality conditions. The optimum product yield and criteria for selecting an appropriate reaction system have been obtained as functions of kinetic parameters. On the basis of optimization results the parameter space has been classified into regions indicating optimum reactor structure. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
