Some Considerations for Safety Analysis of Chemical Reactors

Impact of Mass Transfer on Modelling and Simulation of Reactive Distillation Columns

“…Using dynamic simulations, the start-up and shut-down of current processes can also be optimised. In recent years, mathematical modelling has often been used for the purposes of safety analysis (Molnár et al, 2005). European direction 96/82/EC on control of major industrial accidents (so called Seveso II) requires a detailed safety analysis not only for existing industrial units, but also for units (technologies, equipments) which are designed.…”

Mathematical model of a chemical reactor—useful tool for its safety analysis and design

“…Due to a wide variety of the reactor types, their construction and operational constrains, an universal simulation software has not been available up to now. The main tasks which may be solved for safety analysis purposes by a mathematical model are formulated in the paper of Molnár et al (2005).…”

“…Safety analysis of reactors performance should be done in each step of their design and construction. Some considerations related to the safety analysis of chemical reactors using their mathematical models were presented in our previous paper (Molnár et al, 2005).…”

Robust constrained MPC stabilization of a CSTR

“…This paper studies robust constrained MPC stabilization of an unstable and uncertain CSTR. Hydrolysis of propylene oxide to propylene glycol runs in the reaction mixture in the reactor (Molnár et al 2002). Three uncertain technological parameters of the CSTR are considered.…”
