i) The document describes various process parameters of a chemical reaction including feed flow, coolant flow, temperature, pressure and their possible causes and consequences.
ii) It lists potential issues like no flow, more/less flow, high/low temperature, more/less pressure, contamination and their impact on the reaction, temperature control and product formation.
iii) The document discusses safety and process implications of these parameters and potential corrective measures to address the issues.

ii) coolant flow in feed control operates at a feed reaction valve (CV7) ratio much higher ii) malfunction than the one in cooling indicated causing control valve the formation of (CV9) or failure more byproducts in the water ii) Reaction does system (CV8) not proceed as desired due to low temperatures
High Insufficient Elevation in Temperature
