Abstract

The present study has been focused for the design of optimal operations of various reactor networks like batch and continuous reactors with their suitable impeller and feed conditions. The kinetic properties like velocities and viscosities of feeds are plays a major important role in the formation of imminent dead zone in reactor designs and in turn it relates with mixing processes of the impeller. Several variable parameters for the design of the continuous and batch reactors have been studied. Further the accessible parameters like impeller speed, type of impeller, number of impellers, clearance between the impellers, average residence time and the properties of the feed stream have been reported in the present review.
