THE METHOD DESCRIBED HERE ALLOWS US TO CREATE A MODEL THAT WOULD EVALUATE CORRECTLY THE DYNAMICAL BEHAVIOR OF A GENERAL CHEMICAL PROCESS IN GENERAL CONDITIONS. THESE PROCESSES OFTEN DEPEND STRONGLY ON THE MASS AND HEAT TRANSFER RATES, HENCE ON THE FLOW REGIME, WHICH IS TOO COMPLEX TO CALCULATE DIRECTLY IN MOST OF THE CASES. WE ASSUMED THAT THE REACTOR CAN BE DIVIDED INTO A SMALL NUMBER OF "IDEALIZED" REGIONS (USUALLY 2 OR 3): CSTR REGION, NO REACTION REGION AND FEED REGION, WHERE THE SIZE AND SHAPE OF THESE REGIONS VARY IN TIME. THE MODEL, DESPITE ITS SIMPLICITY, MAY BE APPLIED TO FIND OUT THE EFFECT OF SCALE-UP, IMPROPER MIXING, MULTIPHASE REACTIONS AND FEED LOCATION, AND WAS USED IN SEVERAL APPLICATIONS FOR PARAMETER OPTIMIZATION.
