Reactive batch distillation (RBD) is a preferred process intensification technology to carry
out equilibrium-limited reactions. It is a multicomponent, multiphase system. Appropriate …

The computation and modeling of extents has been proposed to handle the complexity of
large-scale model identification tasks. Unfortunately, the existing extent-based framework …

Abstract Models of chemical reaction systems can be complex as they need to include
information regarding the reactions and the mass and heat transfers. The commonly used …

For lumped homogeneous reaction systems, this paper presents a kinetic model
identification scheme that provides maximum-likelihood parameter estimates and …

The tubular reactor is one of the important tools used in industrial chemical processes to
produce useful products, one of which is the processing of palm oil waste. In its use the …

The concept of reaction extent (the progress of a reaction, advancement of the reaction,
conversion, etc.) was introduced around 100 years ago. Most of the literature provides a …

A new convex optimization framework for the simultaneous identification of reaction
stoichiometries and kinetics for homogeneous reaction systems is developed. The …

The one-dimensional tubular reactor model with advection and possibly axial diffusion is the
classical model of distributed chemical reaction systems. This system is described by partial …

The concept of reaction variants and invariants for lumped reaction systems has been
known for several decades. Its applications encompass model identification, data …

Self-balancing diffusion is a theoretical concept that restricts the introduction of extents of
reactions. This concept is analyzed in detail for general mass-and molar-based balances of …
