Simulation and Modeling of the Fixed-Bed Multi-Tubular Reactor For Maleic Anhydride Production

A precise investigation was performed on the simulation and modeling of n-butane oxidation in this study# a stable one-dimensional pseudo-homogeneous axial system for the fixed bed maleic anhydride production reactor wan investigated# in this process, maleic anhydride is the main product while co2, co, and h2o are the collateral products that are expected to reduce as the level of selectivity elevates# the profiles for temperature, pressure, and the molar percentage of the reactants and products are demonstrated after the simulation is performed and the model equations are solved in matlab#
