Abstract :In this paper, batch reactor design is described. The suspension polymerization reaction is the most preferred element for EPS production. In suspension polymerization, the particle size obtained from the reaction is very important. Parameters such as mixing speed, stirrer shape, reactor size and reactor geometry, reaction temperature and pressure affect the particle size. Furthermore, since suspension reaction is an exothermic reaction, temperature and pressure increase during the reaction. This situation negatively affects the reaction. Therefore, the reaction should be carried out at constant pressure and temperature. A batch reactor design has been made considering this situation and the necessary parameters.Keywords : Expandable Polystyrene, Polystyrene, Reactor Design
