AB  - Chemical reactors in the industry had been
widely used due to his main functionality of control the
chemical reactions through his design in order to promote
a specific reaction between multiple options. To achieve
the objective, it is necessary the knowledge of
physicochemical properties of each compound present at
the in and out flow of the reactor. To predict these
properties, it was used the Peng-Robinson equation of
state, the inlet flow was obtained from the residues of an
atmospheric distillation column of crude oil which were
completely oxidized to their more stable state.
Furthermore, a brief design of the reactor was made to
develop the reactions. Finally, to resume the calculations
of the reactor, the main operational features were
characterized, to obtain a mathematical correlation of each
variable for the purpose of facilitate the control of the
reactor.
