Abstract
Partial oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde on silver catalyst represents an important industrial process due to the versatility of formaldehyde as an intermediate in chemical synthesis. The development of kinetic models is essential for a quantitative description of the concentration of the chemical species involved in the process as well as for process design and optimisation purposes. However, the development and identification of reliable kinetic models is strictly related to the execution of informative experiments, allowing for the elucidation of the complex reaction pathways involved in the oxidation process and providing a precise estimation of the kinetic parameters for each model proposed in the study. In this paper a model-based design of experiments (MBDoE) approach is used for planning optimally informative experiments for the development of kinetic models of methanol oxidation on silver catalyst. Experiments are carried out in microreactor platforms where better reaction temperature control, accelerated heat and mass transfer and enhanced mixing of reactants can be achieved.
