Systematic Procedures for the Synthesis and Evaluation of Alternative Reaction Routes Within the Scope of Process Flowsheet Development

提出的研究解决了生成，分析和评价替代反应路线。这些想法补充了化学家们最近提出的想法，将被应用于化学加工系统的合成，在这些系统中，原材料成本、能源消耗和其他经济变量是重要的考虑因素。研究化学反应路径的特点，以选择和评估有希望的反应路线和中间化学品，设计封闭循环反应序列，确定困难的总体反应，化学反应热泵和太阳能储能系统的可行路径。

The proposed research addresses the generation, analysis, and evaluation of alternative reaction routes. These ideas, which complement those recently developed by chemists, are to be applied to the synthesis of chemical processing systems where raw material costs, energy comsumption, and other economic variables are important considerations. The characteristics of chemical reaction paths will be investigated for the purpose of selecting and evaluating promising reaction routes and intermediate chemicals for the design of closed cycle reaction sequences for identifying feasible paths of difficult overall reactions, chemical reaction heat pumps, and solar energy storage systems.
