Abstract
The problem of choosing the operating conditions, such as temperature and holding time, in a sequence of stirred tank reactors so as to maximize the profit from the conversion is here solved by a functional equation. This equation, derived by the method of dynamic programming, is very suitable for the repetitive calculations that a modern computing machine can perform. A general algorithm is given both in the case of a cascade of reactors and also when there is a by-passing of the original feed to later reactors.
