Regression batch reactor data analysis

Batch reactors are used primarily to determine rate law parameters for hotr geneous reactions. This determination is usually achieved by measuring cc centraiion as a function of time and then using either the differential, integr or nonlinear regression method of data analysis to determine the reacti order, a, and specific reaction rate constant, k. If some reaction parame other than concentration is monitored, such as pressure, the mole balance mi be rewritten in terms of the measured variable (e.g.. pressure as shown in t example in Solved Problems on the CD).
