The Multiplicity and Types of Steady States for a Continuous Stirred-Tank Reactor: a Liquid–Liquid Heterogeneous System

The types of the steady states for a continuous stirred-tank reactor are studied depending on the process parameters, in particular, a parameter not affecting the position of the steady states, by way of example of a liquid–liquid heterogeneous system, in which an exothermic reaction proceeds. It is shown that the change in the coarse steady states occurs through degenerate steady states.
