Cstr Neutralization System Analysis via Entropic Minimization

Zusatztext

Recent studies show that methodologies that use the 1st and 2nd Laws of Thermodynamics together present a better performance in determining the optimal points of operation for the reactive processes, where considerable gains in yield and also in energy savings are observed. Although different methods of analysis have been proposed, very little has yet been done in the area of neutralization systems, basically due to the high complexity involved in such processes. However, a procedure based on the concept of direct minimization of entropy has shown satisfactory results in determining such points of operation. Such methodology was based essentially on mass and enthalpy balances, besides entropy balance, taking into account the kinetic relations of the chemical reactions involved among other thermodynamic relations. The results obtained proved to be easy to understand and applicable.
