Mathematical modeling of the catalytic reaction of benzyl and butyl ethers

On the basis of data which was obtained from experiments conducted at different temperatures and initial components concentrations, mathematical model of catalytic reaction of benzyl butyl ether synthesis was developed. Values of kinetic parameters, such as the chemical rate constants and activation energies for different elementary stages of reaction were determined. Thus, the developed mathematical model within the limits of the permissible error allows evaluating of the experimental data adequately.
