PYTHON AS A SIMULATION TOOL FOR INDUSTRIAL CONTINUOUS REACTOR PROJECTS

Abstract

Industrial reactors are often referred as the “Core" for industrial chemistry due to their functionality, providing the production of different materials. The application of a tool to predict the reactor projects becomes mandatory given the complexity, economic features, and productive feasibility  of according to demand. In order to prepare the standard project, Python programming has been employed as a simulation tool to analyze reaction process in the continuous reactors. The CSTR and PFR models were individually analysed, and modeling was developed to capture their unique characteristics. The results demonstrated the capability of using technological tools to support decision-making and provide a clearer understanding of reaction kinetics within reactors.
