Abstract

On-line test and analysis equipment equivalent for establishing a material balance of a chemical reaction comprising: a reactor; an injection system for a charge having a certain flow and composition, connected to the reactor; instrumentation for measuring the flow and composition of the charge; a heater to heat the reactor so as to provide a gaseous effluent; first analysis instrumentation to provide a qualitative and quantitative analysis of effluents contained in sampling valves; expansion device for the effluents; second analysis instrumentation for expanded effluent; an instrument to measure the volume of the effluents connected to the outlet of the first analysis means; and instrumentation connected to the instrumentation for measuring the flow and composition of the charge, to the instrument for measuring the volume, and to the first and second analysis instrumentation, the processing instrumentation being capable of determining a material balance from the measurements of flow and composition of the charge and the analysis of the charge, and from the analysis of the effluents.
