Biotransformation of glycerol to 1,3-dihydroxyacetone was carried out in an isothermal isochoric batch reactor with Gluconobacter oxydans immobilized in poly(vinyl alcohol) gel capsules. The reaction course was described with a three-step kinetic model. Two reaction schemes were proposed and compared with 8 kinetic experiments at 25 °C. The experimental dependences of glycerol and dihydroxyacetone concentrations on reaction time were simulated very well by the autocatalytic model. The effects of reaction temperature and initial concentrations of yeast extract and glycerol were studied. Temperature 25-30 °C, initial yeast extract concentration 2-4 g l-1 and initial glycerol concentration 20-50 g l-1 were found as optimal. The determined rate constants can be used to advantage for industrial production of dihydroxyacetone from glycerol.

The kinetics of oxidation of alkenes by thallic sulphate in aqueous solutions, involving the two reaction steps-the hydroxythallation and the dethallation - was studied, and the effect of salts on the kinetics was examined; this made it possible to specify more precisely the reaction mechanism and to suggest a qualitative model of the reaction coordinate. It was found that in homogeneous as well as in heterogeneous reaction conditions, the reaction can be accelerated appreciably by adding tetraalkylammonium salts. These salts not only operate as catalysts of the phase transfer, but also exert a significant kinetic effect, which can be explained with a simplification in terms of a stabilization of the transition state of the reaction.

Kinetics have been studied of the reaction system taking place during the reaction of thiophene on the cobalt-molybdenum catalyst in a gradientless circulation flow reactor at 360 °C and atmospheric pressure. Butane has been found present in a small amount in the reaction products even at very low conversion. In view of this, consecutive and parallel-consecutive (triangular) reaction schemes have been proposed. In the former scheme the appearance of butane is accounted for by rate of desorption of butene being comparable with the rate of its hydrogenation. According to the latter scheme part of the butane originates from thiophene via a different route than through hydrogenation of butene. Analysis of the kinetic data has revealed that the reaction of thiophene should be considered to take place on other active sites than that of butene. Kinetic equations derived on this assumption for the consecutive and the triangular reaction schemes correlate experimental data with acceptable accuracy.

d-mannose has exhibited excellent physiological properties in the food, pharmaceutical, and feed industries. Therefore, emerging attention has been applied to enzymatic production of d-mannose due to its advantage over chemical synthesis. The gene age of N-acetyl-d-glucosamine 2-epimerase family epimerase/isomerase (AGEase) derived from Pseudomonas geniculata was amplified, and the recombinant P. geniculata AGEase was characterized. The optimal temperature and pH of P. geniculata AGEase were 60 °C and 7.5, respectively. The Km, kcat, and kcat/Km of P. geniculata AGEase for d-mannose were 49.2 ± 8.5 mM, 476.3 ± 4.0 s−1, and 9.7 ± 0.5 s−1·mM−1, respectively. The recombinant P. geniculata AGEase was classified into the YihS enzyme subfamily in the AGE enzyme family by analyzing its substrate specificity and active center of the three-dimensional (3D) structure. Further studies on the kinetics of different substrates showed that the P. geniculata AGEase belongs to the d-mannose isomerase of the YihS enzyme. The P. geniculata AGEase catalyzed the synthesis of d-mannose with d-fructose as a substrate, and the conversion rate was as high as 39.3% with the d-mannose yield of 78.6 g·L−1 under optimal reaction conditions of 200 g·L−1d-fructose and 2.5 U·mL−1P. geniculata AGEase. This novel P. geniculata AGEase has potential applications in the industrial production of d-mannose.

Experimental research of the kinetics of the decomposition process of Kovdorsky apatite with a size = 0.16 mm with sulfuric acid in a 1 dm3 batch reactor. Phosphoric acid with the concentration of 68.6 % wt and the sulfuric acid with the concentration of 12.3% wt in stoichiometric amount was introduces at the beginning of the process. The process was carried out at a ratio of liquid and solid phases 2.5:1 respectively at the boiling point of the mixture equal to 136 °C. The observing the progress was carried out according to the method of joint designation of sulfuric and phosphoric acids by titrimetric analysis. With methyl orange and then phenolphthalein 2 titration jumps were recorded, the first of which corresponded to the neutralization of sulfuric acid to Na2SO4 and phosphoric acid to NaH2PO4, the second to the neutralization of NaH2PO4 to Na2HPO4. The change in temperature of the reaction mixture was fixed during the process using a mercury thermometer. In the analysis of the derived experimental values of specified parameters that the boiling point decreases from 136 to 133.1 оС within 50 minutes during the process. A comparison of the reported values with the concentration values of sulfuric and phosphoric acids measured during the process shows that the change in boiling point of the reaction mixture is proportional to the change in the concentrations of sulfuric and phosphoric acids. This model is a closed system that provides thermal insulation and no loss of material balance. Thus, the kinetics of the decomposition of apatite with sulfuric acid at the boiling point can be monitored by the temperature change under specified conditions.

Find the microstructure of the product generated in a reaction of polymerization is desirable from a material science standpoint, due to the association between the microstructure and the physical properties. For the science of this fact, this paper aims to use stochastic modeling to obtain the microstructure and key information from a set of polymer chains generated during a reaction. From this data, the present article contributes to the minimization of experimental expenses, besides the saving of time, since no experiments are necessary to discover the characteristics of the polymer obtained under certain reaction conditions. This information cannot be found by other usual methodologies for modeling chemical reactions, such as the deterministic form. Also, from a given desired structure, the initial concentration and temperature conditions for forming that product can be obtained. This study was conducted based on Monte Carlo stochastic methods, by which we seek to replicate the randomness present in chemical reactions. The algorithm created in C ++ language determines the variation of the number of molecules of each species with time, besides the chemical composition, the sequence of mere and size of the generated chains. This approach applies to straight-chain homopolymerizations and copolymerizations. In this paper, we studied the polymerization in styrene batch reactors to form polystyrene, in addition to the copolymerization of styrene with alpha-methyl styrene. These simulations were characterized by forming chains with small blocks of monomers.

Abstract The reaction of acrylic acid and 2-ethyl-1 hexanol was explored in this work with the intent of process intensification. In order to assess the effect of important parameters on the course of reaction, this work initially conducted batch reactor experiments. Reaction conditions in the batch reactor for a specific conversion (~ 30 %) were obtained. A kinetic model was then obtained through regression to arrive at a rate expression that is later used in process development. Experiments were performed in the reactive distillation (RD) environment in batch mode, which showed substantial increase in conversion (~ 80 %) indicating the applicability of RD. Further, this work performed simulation in the RD environment to assess process intensification. Simulations show that it is possible to obtain complete conversion of the acid.

Batch adsorption studies were done on aqueous solutions of Pb(NO3)2 at varying solute concentration, adsorbent dose, contact time, temperature, calcination temperatures and pH. Residual concentrations of the solute were found out using AAS and optimum conditions were studied. Adsorbent used in this study is locally available silicate rich mineral which closely resembles zeolites. The net negative charge on the framework of hydrated aluminosilicates is responsible for ion exchange property. Freundlich model was used to validate the results obtained from batch experiments plotting lnCe vs lnqe. Objective of this work is to study the kinetics of adsorption considering the interplay of particle diffusion in addition to proving the effectiveness as an adsorbent. A diffusion model also was also applied apart from kinetic model to analyze the experimental results more specifically. For maximizing the efficiency of the adsorption process and minimizing the time involved, variables like temperature, reactants and pH were manipulated using kinetic studies. It establishes the optimum reaction conditions for various experimental parameters in the process of adsorption.
