Dynamical rules of design are obtained in order to select the unit integrations with the most desirable stability characteristics. The integration of nonisothermal CSTR's with endothermic and exothermic reactions is examined in detail. It is shown that heat integration can make the endothermic reactor more stable if it increases the slope of the heat removal line for this reactor. On the other hand, the stability of exothermic reactors tends to increase when heat integration moves the slope of the heat removal line for this reactor closer to a characteristic value. Approximate values are also calculated for the critical amount of heat integration which makes the system unstable.Read More
