- Semibatch reactors are commonly used to prevent thermal runaway.
- Kinetic parameters of exothermic reactions are often unavailable in practice.
- A kinetic-parameters-free procedure to determine safe conditions is developed in this work.
- This procedure just needs several isothermal RC1 tests.
In the fine and pharmaceutical chemical industries, the kinetic parameters of exothermic reactions are often unavailable because this process is time-consuming and money-consuming. Hence, it is essential to develop kinetic-parameters-free procedure to determine thermally safe operating conditions for exothermic semibatch reactions. In this work, a practical procedure without any reaction kinetic parameter information required has been developed and presented. It just needs several isothermal RC1 (reaction calorimetry) tests, which are convenient to conduct in practice. Such a practical procedure, based on two crucial theoretical tools: Rymin-Wt plot and νADaREκ-Xac plot, allows one not only to keep safe conditions but also to optimize the reactor productivity. In addition, this method is also feasible for the cases of the exothermic reactions with low value of Ex and low mixing heat. Moreover, this method is supposed to be inapplicable when encountering autocatalytic reactions.
