Applications Of The Single Well Stirred Tank Model For Dispersion In Flow Injection, Julian Tyson
Chemistry Department Faculty Publication Series
The single well stirred tank model in which dispersion is modelled by the passage of a slug of fluid through the tank has been used to compare the sensitivity that can be obtained by the use of three types of flow injection manifold, which incorporate on-line chemical reaction. These manifolds are the single-line manifold, the double-line manifold and the single-line manifold used in the reverse mode (i.e., the reagent is injected into the sample which constitutes the carrier stream). The model indicates that each manifold type will give the same sensitivity, but that operating conditions and throughput will be different …
