Application examples

This example presents the use of experimental concentration data to identify the kinetic parameters of a reaction scheme. The reactions taken into account are controlled by kinetics. At the end of the identification, a reactive calculator is generated. This way, the components, the thermodynamic model and the chemical reactions can be easily loaded in BatchReactor and BatchColumn simulations.

The main interest of this example is the simulation of a set of three heterogeneous catalytic reactions. These reactions follow the Langmuir-Hinshelwood formalism.

The main interest of this example is the scale-up a chlorination reactor. The chlorination of o-chlorotoluene is performed in a vapor-liquid reactor. The heating/cooling device of the reactor and the condenser geometry are specified. During the reaction step, the temperature level in the reactor is controlled with a PID.

This example presents a simple case of pressure increase of a tank, followed by a depressurization after the rupture disc breaks out. The characteristics of the flow at the vent and the evolution of the tank load are followed over time.

The main interest of this simple example is to show how user can very simply describe his own kinetics models using the advanced mode available in Simulis Reactions, the chemical reactions server used in BatchReactor software. This white biotechnology example deals with the fermentation of glucose to gluconic acid, which involves the oxidation of the aldehyde group of the sugar to a carboxyl group.

The main interest of this example is to show how user can very simply describe his own kinetics models using the advanced mode available in Simulis Reactions, the chemical reactions server used in BatchReactor software. This food processing example deals with reactions that some components of the tomato sauce, such as ascorbic acid, chlorogenic acid and β-carotene, suffer during the production of this product.

The main interest of this example is to illustrate how to model photobioreactors using BatchReactor software. With the advanced mode available in Simulis Reactions, the user can import libraries of kinetic models that can be easily modified and adjusted to suit a wide range of bioreactions.

This example shows the modelling of a monophasic reactor for which the heating device is described. Another interest is to set two stop events for a same step. This example also allows to simulate a failure case on the reactor.

The main interest of this example is to use a reactive calculator generated by Simulis Kinetics after the identification of the reaction scheme of the thymol synthesis. Consequently, the components, the thermodynamic model and the chemical reactions are automatically provided in the BatchReactor simulation. The cooling device of the reactor is specified.
