Kinetic model of cyclohexane oxidation

A model of the process of the catalytic cyclohexane oxidation in the liquid phase, including both reaction kinetics and mass transfer, is presented.

Description
Summary:A model of the process of the catalytic cyclohexane oxidation in the liquid phase, including both reaction kinetics and mass transfer, is presented. As catalysts cobalt napthenate and chromium napthenate were used. The reaction rate constants as well as the activation energies were determined on the basis of the experimental results obtained in a laboratory reactor. A mathematical model of an industrial reactor for the cyclohexane oxidation is also presented. The results of the cyclohexane oxidation simulations are compared with the data from different industrial reactors (CYCLOPOL process).
