About this document

Optimizing CSTR Reactor Design by Syeda Khaliqa Hamid is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document discusses optimizing the number of continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTR) in series for a chemical reaction. It considers using either a single CSTR reactor or multiple reactors chained in succession. The goal is to determine the optimum number of reactors to minimize costs. It describes simulating CSTR reactors on Aspen HYSYS and using the design equations to calculate reactor volumes. Optimization is then performed on Microsoft Excel to determine the volumes that make all reactors equal in s
