The objective of this work is to make use of methodologies and tools from nonlinear Lyapunov theory in the design of bounded control laws for the temperature stabilisation of Continuous Stirred Tank Reactors CSTRs with exothermic or endothermic reactions Simple output feed back control laws i e control laws that feed back only the available mea surements are designed It is shown that these cont...

This paper presents simulation experiments on the continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) which is widely used equipment mainly in the chemical industry. The behaviour of these types of systems is usually nonlinear with other negative properties such as a time-delay or a non-minimum phase behaviour and simulation could help us with the understanding of them without making real experiments which ...

-Feeding continuously operated stirred tank rectors with reactants and homogeneous catalysts subject to inactivation will usually lead to a limited substrate conversion with increasing space time. However, it is shown that a maximum of conversion may be observed under certain circumstances. Guided by experimental evidence, the theoretical background is discussed for identifying reaction systems...

This paper presents control of the nonlinear system represented by a Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) using MATLAB’s Graphical User Interface (GUI). This simulation provides computation for various values of the input variables, which made this program universal for the wide range of the users without theoretical knowledge about modeling, simulation, and control.

In the present study, commonly used weakly compressible lattice Boltzmann method and Guo incompressible lattice Boltzmann method have been used to simulate fluid flow in a stirred tank. For this purpose a 3D Parallel code has been developed in the framework of the lattice Boltzmann method. This program has been used for simulation of flow at different geometries such as 2D channel fluid flow an...

Multiphase impeller stirred tank reactors enhance mixing of reacting species used in a variety of chemical industries. These reactors have been studied based on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that can be used in the analysis, design and scale up of these reactors. Most of the researches done in this area are limited to single phase reactors, and a few remaining two phase flow investigat...

In order to operate a process which uses immobilized enzymes at constant conversion and constant capacity, the refreshment of the enzyme must be continuous. In this paper, two reactor types with continuous refreshment of the biocatalyst are discussed: the stirred tank and the multistage fluidized bed. A method is presented for dimensioning a reactor in such a way that the costs for the conversi...
