What does “reactions” mean in a reactive distillation column?
Thread Content
In the simulation of reactive distillation, after the results are calculated, click on the ‘profile’ folder within the reactive distillation column; there is an item called ‘reactions’. What do the results for this item mean? Does it refer to the reaction amounts of each section? I used the number of plates as the horizontal axis and the subsequent values as the vertical axis to create a graph; I found that the composition changed drastically on certain plates, while it remained unchanged on other plates. What does this mean?
The value for the \"reactions\" parameter represents the reaction rate of each substance, with units of Kmol/hr or mol/s. If the composition of a certain component changes significantly on one plate while remaining unchanged on the other plates, it indicates that there is a primary reaction zone for this reaction
Is it possible that such a reaction occurs, where his reaction zone is not on one plate but rather on multiple plates? For example, on boards 8 to 11. If that’s the case, what can it tell us? Based on aspects such as the equilibrium conversion rate of the reaction and the number of plates required in the reaction section, 2# li*aohong0311
