Abstract

Biphasic reacting systems have a broad application range from organic reactions in pharmaceutical and agro-bio industries to CO 2 capture. However, mathematical modelling of biphasic reacting systems is a formidable challenge due to many phenomena underlying the process such as chemical equilibrium, biphasic equilibrium, reaction kinetics, and transport/mixing. In this study, a framework for modelling biphasic reacting systems is proposed to fa cilitate the model development in support of model-based process design-analysis. This framework is successfully applied to describe two biphasic reaction systems: a PTC-based reaction system and pseudo-PTC system.
