A mixing‐reaction model ‘MIRE‐CSTR’ is developed to describe the selectivity behaviour mixing‐disguised reactions in continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTR). For competitive, consecutive reactions the general behaviour is demonstrated and a comparison with the behaviour in discontinuous operation is made. Furthermore, the start‐up process of the CSTR is discussed with the help of a model similar to the model ‘MIRE‐CSTR’.
