The Flory-Schulz distribution of molecular weight is shown to be rigorously achieved throughout the course of reversible polycondensation in a semi-batch reactor. Previous analysis of a mathematical model had suggested this distribution was only approximately achieved.

In a previous paper the N + 1 non-linear differential equations (N 4 m) which describe unsteady reversible polycondensation in a semi-batch reactor were shown to collapse to a three equation model that is rigorously applicable to non-equilibrium reacting mixtures. The collapsed model is shown to red
## Abstract An unusual type of oscillatory, thermal instability in a reaction which takes place in a semiβbatch reactor, (i.e., when one reactant is admitted slowly to the reaction vessel and mixes with another reactant already present in the system) is investigated experimentally and theoretically
The design of a robust non-linear feedback controller has been analysed for product concentration tracking in the case of parallel reactions occurring in a semi-batch isothermal reactor. Simulation results show the efficiency of the control scheme and its robustness to modelling errors.
