Abstract
A mathematical model of a continuous polycondensation reactor used in the finishing stages is developed. This axial dispersion model predicts the directions in which mixing, and other process and operational variables, will influence the progress of polycondensation. The available pilot plant data have been compared with the model predictions. In view of the neglect of the side reactions in our model, the comparison is only approximate but appears reasonable. The analysis developed is used to highlight certain critical design considerations.
