Master's Theses
The main purpose of this study was to investigate kinetic models proposed in the
literature for methanol synthesis and select the best fit model using regression techniques
in POLYMATH. Another aim was to use the results from the best fit model to explain
some aspects and resolve some questions related to methanol synthesis kinetics. Two
statistically sound kinetic models were chosen from literature based on their goodness of
fit to the respective kinetic data. POLYMATH, the non-linear regression software, was
used to fit published experimental data to different kinetic models and evaluate kinetic
parameters. The statistical results from POLYMATH were …
