Variation of Reaction Kinetics with the Process Parameters in a FBR System: Mathematical Modeling by MATLAB

The variation of different parameters of the process as well as the different parameters of the system such as time of reaction, superficial gas velocity of the fluid, bed height in static condition can affect the kinetics of the reaction. Thus, affecting the overall yield and overall conversion of the FBR system by developing a MATLAB programme. The developed MATLAB coding on the basis of the reactor system in which ammoxidation of propylene with air was done to produce acrylonitrile. As MATLAB gives the detailed knowledge of the reaction kinetics of a fluidized bed reactor so, with the help of that the parametric variation of conversion and reaction rate constant has been predicted. Thus, one can optimize the process by selecting proper dimensions of a reactor which saves energy with the improved efficiency.
