General description and relevant information Subject devoted to establish a kinetic model of a chemical reaction from experimental data. Once known the kinetic model we can make the choice of the most suitable chemical reactor to perform a certain type of operation. Once we know the type of reactor to be used, we can perform the design establishing the thermodynamic conditions of pressure and temperature. Then, the reactor volume and residence timetime will be calculated. Safety measures will also be taken into account for a correct operation of the equipment.
