| Summary: | Sequential polymerization reactions are frequently employed to convert CO2 into aviation fuels or chemical raw materials. Their reaction rates are complicated and challenging to determine quickly. This research develops a generic method to construct reaction rate models for sequential polymerization reactions. The reaction progression order is inferred from the first and second derivatives of compositional fluctuations observed during the reaction. Then, the frequency factor and activation energy of both the target reaction and its subsequent reaction are determined. This procedure is repeated iteratively, starting with the first reaction. It was demonstrated that the proposed method constructs reasonable reaction rate models by using virtual data of sequential polymerization reaction processes with or without measurement noise. A Savitzky-Golay finite impulse response smoothing filter proved effective for noise management in the data preprocessing stage. Finally, the usefulness of the proposed method was validated through actual laboratory test data. |
