Abstract: The article describes a model of the process of pH neutralization tank reactors with continuous agitation. It presents a brief history of process modeling, schematic diagram of the process of pH neutralization and the process model. The process model is then built and resolved in Simulink /Matlab.
Keywords: Modeling, Simulation, pH neutralization, Reactor
