Problems-with Volume Reaction

Equation (12) is commonly encountered in problems of chemical technology in which the function T plays the role of concentration and the parameter k, of the constant rate of volume chemical reaction (see Section 3.1). [Pg.338]

The solution of the problem with volume reaction (12)—(15) can be expressed by the formula [Pg.338]


The reaction catalyzed by ODCase is ostensibly quite simple—the decarboxylation of orotate ribose monophosphate (OMP) to produce uracil ribose monophosphate (see below). The problem with this reaction is that direct decarboxylation would lead to an anion whose lone pair of electrons is not aligned with any r-system that could lead to stabilization through delocalization. Various proposals have been put forth to overcome this apparent obstacle. These include selective stabilization of the transition state for direct decarboxylation by non-covalent interactions with ODCase, selective destabilization of the reactant by repulsive noncovalent interactions that are reduced or removed during direct decarboxylation, pre-protonation of the reactant on one of its carbonyl oxygens or alkene carbons such that decarboxylation would lead to a stabilized ylide, and concerted protonation-decarboxylation which would avoid the formation of a discrete uracil anion. The validity of these mechanistic proposals is analyzed from various viewpoints in this volume. [Pg.159]

This chapter aims to provide several worked examples of how to generate candidate ARs. All of these examples are two-dimensional in nature, which is useful for demonstration purposes because the results are easily visualized. Do not let this constraint mislead you into thinking that the examples are insignificant. By the end of this chapter, readers should be able to solve reactor network problems with multiple reactions involving selectivity, yield, conversion, and minimum reactor volume. [Pg.109]

We included the term r = 0 to indicate that there is no reaction in the gas phase. The mass transfer rates obviously have opposite signs, and we have to multiply the mass transfer flux by [areaA olume], where the volume is that occupied by that phase. Note that the mass transfer term after dividing out becomes proportional to R. Since the reactor volume is proportional to R while the surface area for mass transfer is proportional to R, the falling film column obviously becomes less efficient for larger reactor sizes. This is a fundamental problem with the falling film reactor in that small tubes give high mass transfer rates but low total production of product. [Pg.490]

PdCl2 was purchased from Johnson Matthey GmbH (Karlsruhe, Germany), t TPPTS is prepared according to the procedure of Hoechst AG Werk Ruhrcbemie11 with a purity of 99.3% (TPPTS-oxide 0.7%). A similar synthesis is described in this volume and includes the synthesis of TPPTS. The checkers initially had problems with a sample of TPPTS which had been in solution for longer than 3 months and contained 21% TPPTS-oxide. When fresh TPPTS was used, the reaction worked very well and afforded 376.2 mg (95%) yield. [Pg.26]

The next reasonable step in studying our chemical games is to consider ensembles of A s and B s (e.g., topers and policemen), when they are randomly and homogeneously distributed in the reaction volume and are characterized by macroscopic densities of a number of particles. The peculiarity of the A + B -y B reaction is that the solution of a problem with a single A could be extrapolated for an ensemble of A s (in other words, a problem is linear in particles A). As it was said above, it is analytically solvable for Da = 0 but turns out to be essentially many-particle for Db = 0. It is useful to analyze a form of the solution obtained for the particle concentration tia (t) in terms of the basic postulates of standard chemical kinetics (i.e., the mean-field theory). [Pg.21]

Another problem with conventional fermenters concerns foaming. In traditional systems, the introduction of large quantities of gas into the vigorously agitated fermentation liquor often produces great quantities of foam in the reaction vessel. Biological reactors are particularly susceptible to foaming because of the surfactant properties of most biomolecules. This foam severely limits the usable volume of the vessel and can render the fermentation process inoperable and microbially contaminated when the gas flow exit lines become filled with foam. All of these problems have a substantially adverse influence upon the yield and cost-eflectiveness of conventional fermentation processes. [Pg.114]

This allows the concentration units to be changed to suit the problem, and other measures of concentration, such as mole fraction, partial pressure, or fugacity, might be introduced, g is a good measure to use for gaseous reactions with volume changes and will be mentioned later in connection with tubular reactors otherwise we will phrase our problems in terms of c, recognizing that this implies no limitation on the method. [Pg.34]

But the reaction is also subject to steric hindrance, especially when the difference between the electron-withdrawing and donating characters of the two reactants is not great. When Woodward tried to synthesize cantharidin, the active ingredient in Spanish fly, by the Diels-Alder condensation of furan with dimethylmaleic anhydride, the reaction did not work. The reaction possesses - A V (it proceeds with a net decrease in volume). High pressure should overcome this problem, but this reaction will not proceed even at 600,0(X) Ib/in. A closely related reaction will proceed at 300,OCX) Ib/in and has been used to synthesize this molecule. Cantharidin is a powerful vesicant (blister-former). [Pg.285]

Much of the work to date on particle size effects on phase transformation kinetics has involved materials of technological interest (e.g., CdS and related materials, see Jacobs and Alivisatos, this volume) or other model compounds with characteristics that make them amenable to experimental studies. Jacobs and Alivisatos (this volume) tackle the question of pressure driven phase transformations where crystal size is largely invariant. In some ways, analysis of the kinetics of temperature-motivated phase transformations in nanoscale materials is more complex because crystal growth occurs simultaneously with polymorphic reactions. However, temperature is an important geological reality and is also a relevant parameter in design of materials for higher temperature applications. Thus, we consider the complicated problem of temperature-driven reaction kinetics in nanomaterials. [Pg.40]
