Copolymers are typically manufactured using weU-mixed continuous-stirred tank reactor (cstr) processes, where the lack of composition drift does not cause loss of transparency. SAN copolymers prepared in batch or continuous plug-flow processes, on the other hand, are typically hazy on account of composition drift. SAN copolymers with as Httle as 4% by wt difference in acrylonitrile composition are immiscible (44). SAN is extremely incompatible with PS as Httle as 50 ppm of PS contamination in SAN causes haze. Copolymers with over 30 wt % acrylonitrile are available and have good barrier properties. If the acrylonitrile content of the copolymer is increased to >40 wt %, the copolymer becomes ductile. These copolymers also constitute the rigid matrix phase of the ABS engineering plastics. 

The dominant crystal size, is most often used as a representation of the product size, because it represents the size about which most of the mass in the distribution is clustered. If the mass density function defined in equation 33 is plotted for a set of hypothetical data as shown in Figure 10, it would typically be observed to have a maximum at the dominant crystal size. In other words, the dominant crystal size is that characteristic crystal dimension at which drajdL = 0. Also shown in Figure 10 is the theoretical result obtained when the mass density is determined for a perfectiy mixed, continuous crystallizer within which invariant crystal growth occurs. That is, mass density is found for such systems to foUow a relationship of the form m = aL exp —bL where a and b are system-dependent parameters. 

Preferential Removal of Crystals. Crystal size distributions produced ia a perfectiy mixed continuous crystallizer are highly constraiaed the form of the CSD ia such systems is determined entirely by the residence time distribution of a perfectly mixed crystallizer. Greater flexibiUty can be obtained through iatroduction of selective removal devices that alter the residence time distribution of materials flowing from the crystallizer. The... 

At high ratios of fluidiziug velocity to minimum fluidizing velocity, tremendous solids circulation from top to bottom of the bed assures rapid mixing of the solids. For aU practical purposes, beds with L/D ratios of from 4 to 0.1 can be considered to be completely mixed continuous-reaction vessels insofar as the sohds are concerned. 

Two types of interac tion, competition, and predation are so important that worthwhile insight comes from considering mathematical formulations. Assuming that specific growth-rate coefficients are different, no steady state can be reached in a well-mixed continuous culture with both types present because, if one were at steady state with [L = D, the other would have [L unequal to D and a rate of change unequal to zero. The net effect is that the faster-growing type takes over while the other dechnes to zero. In real systems—even those that approximate well-mixed continuous cultures—there may be profound... 

SERS has also been applied as a sensitive, molecule-specific detection method in chromatography, e.g. thin layer, liquid, and gas chromatography. SERS-active colloids were deposited on the thin layer plates or mixed continuously with the liquid mobile phases. After adsorption of the analytes, characteristic spectra of the fractions were obtained and enabled unambiguous identification of very small amounts of substance.

The molar rate of change of polymeric species of degree of polymerization n in a well-mixed, continuous flow tank reactor is related to the kinetic rate of propagation of unassociated polystyryl anions plus their withdrawal rate in the reactor s effluent. Feed streams are void of polymeric substances, but contain monomer initiator and solvent.

Many of the problems arise out of the extrapolation of what happens in solution cultures to soils. Although. solution cultures have served and continue to serve very useful functions in basic research of plant science, they differ from soils in several important ways. The surface area available in soils for processes such as sorption is much greater than in solution cultures, solution cultures are mixed continuously, the microbial ecology differs greatly between the two media, and the status of water and O2 in the two systems is usually quite different.

However gently a drop of dye solution is added to a saucer of clean, pure water, the colour of the dye soon spreads into uncoloured regions of the water. This mixing occurs inevitably without warming or any kind of external agitation - the painter with watercolour would find his art impossible without this effect. Such mixing continues... 

For the well-mixed continuous-flow liquid phase shown in Fig. 1, the balance equations for oxygen and substrate must account for the supply of each component both by convective flow and by gas-liquid transfer, as well as by the diffusion rate into the biofilm. 

The same consecutive reactions considered in Prob. 6.18 are now carried out in two perfectly mixed continuous reactors. Flow rates and densities are constant. The volumes of the two tanks (P) are the same and constant. The reactors operate at the same constant temperature.

As the intermediate is frequently the desired reaction product, this rule allows us to evaluate the effectiveness of various reactor systems. For example, plug flow and batch operations should both give a maximum R yield because here there is no mixing of fluid streams of different compositions. On the other hand, the mixed reactor should not give as high a yield of R as possible because a fresh stream of pure A is being mixed continually with an already reacted fluid in the reactor.
