2. Systematic assessment
2.1 Runaway scenario
The failure scenario presented below was proposed by R. Gygax . The behavior of the chemical system during runaway can be described by considering the example of an exothermic batch reaction. The classical scheme for such a process is as follows: the reactants are fed into the reactor at room temperature,...
