the kinetic of fischer-tropsch synthesis over a co-precipitated fe-ce catalyst was investigated in a fixed bed micro reactor. experimental conditions were varied as follow: reaction pressure 1-15bar, h¬¬¬2/co feed ratio of 1-3 and space velocity of 3600-5400 h-1 at the temperature range of 270-310°c. 4 models according to the langmuir-hinshelwood-hougen-watson (lhhw) type rate equation were der...

In this paper, conventional SAPO-34 and Cerium Hierarchical SAPO-34 zeolites are synthesized using a hydrothermal method for methanol-to-propylene (MTP) reaction. The Ce-H-SAPO-34 catalyst shows a slightly larger crystal size, bimodal pore size distribution (microporous and mesoporous) and lower surface acidity compared to conventional SAPO-34 catalysts. According to these physicochemical prope...

This work deals with kinetics and chemical equilibrium studies of esterification reaction of ethanol with acetic acid.  The esterification reaction was catalyzed by an acidic ion exchange resin (Amberlyst-15) using a batch stirred tank reactor. The pseudo-homogenous and Eley-Rideal models were successfully fitted with experimental data. At first, Eley-Rideal model was examined for heterogeneous...

in this paper, a batch hydrogenation reactor performance was modeled using a hydrodynamic and reaction sub-models. the reaction expressions were obtained from the information reported in literature. experimental studies were conducted in order to generate the experimental data needed to validate the model. the comparison between the experimental data and model predictions seems quite satisfacto...

For large and complex reacting systems, computational efficiency becomes a critical issue in process simulation, optimization and model-based control. Mechanism simplification is often a necessity to improve computational speed. We present a novel approach to simplification of reaction networks that formulates the model reduction problem as an optimization problem and solves it using geneti...

The stochastic reaction diffusion systems may suffer sudden shocks‎, ‎in order to explain this phenomena‎, ‎we use Markovian jumps to model stochastic reaction diffusion systems‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we are interested in almost sure exponential stability of stochastic reaction diffusion systems with Markovian jumps‎. ‎Under some reasonable conditions‎, ‎we show that the trivial solution of stocha...
