Abstract

The thermal, bulk polymn. of styrene is conducted in a pilot plant consisting of a recycle tubular reactor followed by a tubular reactor. The conversion of the pre-polymn. part is in the range of 0 to 60% and at the outlet of the pilot plant ?96%. Studies on the residence time distribution show plug-flow behavior for a variety of different conditions with respect to viscosity and d. gradient. The polymers obtained are characterized by gel permeation chromatog. and compared to com. products. [on SciFinder (R)]

Chemical reactor

A chemical reactor is an enclosed volume in which a chemical reaction takes place. In chemical engineering, it is generally understood to be a process vessel used to carry out a chemical reaction, which is one of the classic unit operations in chemical process analysis. The design of a chemical reactor deals with multiple aspects of chemical engineering. Chemical engineers design reactors to maximize net present value for the given reaction.

Plug flow reactor model

The plug flow reactor model (PFR, sometimes called continuous tubular reactor, CTR, or piston flow reactors) is a model used to describe chemical reactions in continuous, flowing systems of cylindrical geometry. The PFR model is used to predict the behavior of chemical reactors of such design, so that key reactor variables, such as the dimensions of the reactor, can be estimated.

Algebraic variety

Algebraic varieties are the central objects of study in algebraic geometry, a sub-field of mathematics. Classically, an algebraic variety is defined as the set of solutions of a system of polynomial equations over the real or complex numbers. Modern definitions generalize this concept in several different ways, while attempting to preserve the geometric intuition behind the original definition. Conventions regarding the definition of an algebraic variety differ slightly.
