In this project, a systematic approach for multiscale modelling and design of SMART reactors is developed. For this purpose, internal structures of multiphase reactors are analyzed and locally optimized by means of high-resolution validated CFD simulations. In addition, superstructure optimization will be used to derive optimal reactor networks, as well as systemic and compartment models, on the basis of which a systematic optimization-based design of local and global reactor structures will be performed. In the course of the SFB, the flexibility of smart components will be systematically considered by a multistage optimization approach to enable autonomous SMART reactors.
