Methodology mixing

Other considerations (such as mixed quantum and classical forces) arise when considering the complete merger of two or more methodologies in the same molecular system, but since they are not yet available in this release of HyperChem they need not be considered here. 

In order to account for both micromixing and mesomixing effects, a mixing model for precipitation based on the SFM has been developed and applied to continuous and semibatch precipitation. Establishing a network of ideally macromixed reactors if macromixing plays a dominant role can extend the model. The methodology of how to scale up a precipitation process is depicted in Figure 8.8. 

Mixed perfluoroorganomercury compounds can be prepared by a variation of this methodology [157] (equation 120)... 

Despite of the disadvantage, that at least one symmetrical dimer is formed as a major side product, mixed Kolbe electrolysis has turned out to be a powerful synthetic method. It enables the efficient synthesis of rare fatty acids, pheromones, chiral building blocks or non proteinogenic amino acids. The starting compounds are either accessible from the large pool of fatty acids or can be easily prepared via the potent methodologies for the construction of carboxylic acids. 

Chapter 2 developed a methodology for treating multiple and complex reactions in batch reactors. The methodology is now applied to piston flow reactors. Chapter 3 also generalizes the design equations for piston flow beyond the simple case of constant density and constant velocity. The key assumption of piston flow remains intact there must be complete mixing in the direction perpendicular to flow and no mixing in the direction of flow. The fluid density and reactor cross section are allowed to vary. The pressure drop in the reactor is calculated. Transpiration is briefly considered. Scaleup and scaledown techniques for tubular reactors are developed in some detail. 

The industrial process for which this methodology was developed comprised polymerizing a monomer in the presence of a mixed solvent, the catalyst and other Ingredients. Once the batch polymerization is complete, the product requires removal of the solvents to a specified level. The solvents, an aromatic Cy and aliphatic Cy compounds, are removed by a two-step process schematically shown in Figure 1. As shown, the polymer slurry is initially flashed to a lower pressure (Pj ) in the presence of steam and water. The freely available solvent in the polymer-solvent mixture is removed by the shift in thermodynamic equilibrium. Solvent attached to the surface of the polymer particle is removed by the steam. In this first step, 90% of the total solvents are recovered. The remaining solvents are recovered in the second flash, where the effluent is almost all water with very low concentrations of the solvents. 

When the planning algorithms are run on this plant no MSVS is found since, in the worst-case state, there are no valves that will prevent hydrogen cyanide and formaldehyde from mixing in the region of overlap. Thus the computer will try to use the methodology described in the... 

The final stages of the methodology consist of eliminating some of the less Informative tests and adding other tests to provide data needed to quantify nonlinear relationships The resulting experimental design then consists of a mix of conditional main effects and conditional Interactions It represents a compromise among scientific, statistical, and economic constraints ...
