Thermal runaway is a frequent source of process safety issues, and the uncontrolled release of chemical energy puts reactors at risk. The design of the exothermic reactor faces challenges due to the selective sensitivity of the product to high temperatures and the need to increase the lifetime of the catalyst, optimize the product distribution, and improve the thermodynamic properties. Phase change material (PCM) encapsulation is recommended to reduce leakage, phase separation, and volume change problems. This work introduces encapsulated PCMs to improve reactor temperature control and minimize thermal runaway in exothermic processes. The warning temperature value setting effectively inhibits fugitive exothermic reactions and enhances heat transfer. When a sufficient quantity of encapsulated PCMs is input, the response speed will automatically accelerate. Spontaneous acceleration of the reaction rate due to thermal runaway of the reaction may be completely avoided by adding a sufficient amount of encapsulated PCM. Microencapsulation is used to control volume changes and inhibit thermal reactions. Preventive strategies include cooling, depressurization, safety release, emergency resources, and reaction containment. Encapsulated PCMs improve mechanical and thermal properties, surface-to-volume ratio, heat transfer surface, thermal capacity, and efficiency. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
