Abstract: This research paper presents the design and implementation of a Model Predictive Controller (MPC) for a Plug Flow Reactor (PFR), aimed at optimizing reactor performance and improving the ...

Methods used for the study of the kinetics of exhaust hydrocarbon reactions are reviewed, compared and contrasted. The isothermal plug flow reactor which allows the determination of time resolved ...

Direct non-oxidative conversion of methane to ethylene and aromatics is highly attractive but fundamentally constrained by the tradeoff between conversion and selectivity under isothermal conditions.
