| Batch chemical reactors simulation |
|
Objectives
This training covers chemical synthesis processes and the different methods to better handle this type of processes. Attendees will learn how to optimize reactors yield, to better control reaction and to avoid runaways. They will also learn how to use kinetics data in order to simulate chemical reactions.
By the end of the training, attendees will be better equiped to study the different aspects of this type of process (choice of equipment, production yield...) as well as the associated issues (security, scale-up...). The training will use the BatchReactor software.

Who should attend?
This training session is particularly relevant to chemists and chemical engineers involved in security, sizing or optimization studies of batch processes with chemical reactors as well as to the persons in charged of the manufacture of such equipment.
