摘要
Statistical best-fit kinetic and transport parameters are derived from temperature and yield profiles observed in a pilot-plant catalytic reactor in which o-xylene is oxidised with air to phthalic anhydride and its precursors. Published data are used to begin the search routine and the tuned parameters are seen to be plaubible. The overall model has good extrapolative power to the point where catalyst deactivation becomes apparent. © 1979.
