Keyword Explanation
GNUPLOT Whether to output GNUPlot-style graphs

Graphs block

Mkmcxx 2 3 0.png

Inside the graphs block, you can set the colors used in the non-GNUPLOT graphs for specific components. On each line, you place the compound between curly brackets followed by the RGB color code. For example: 

&graphs
# fix colors for particular compounds
{A*} #E74C3D
{B*} #F29C1F
{C*} #287FB9
{*}  #15A086

Selectivity block

Mkmcxx 2 3 0.png

Inside the selectivity block, you can specify mole balances on which basis you calculate selectivity and degree of selectivity control graphs. You need to specify a name, a key component and one or more products (typically more than one, else the concept of selectivity is rather trivial). The name will be used in the generation of the corresponding graph file, so please use a safe name (i.e. no spaces and no special characters!) 

&selectivity
species_balance; {A}; {E},{F}

In the above example, the name of the mole balance block is "species_balance", the key component is A and the products of interest are E and F. A detailed example on how to use this block is explained here.

Stoichiometry

Often, the stoichiometry of the key component and the products is not simply a 1:1 ratio. To account for this difference, you need to put the stoichiometric coefficient in front the compound. The stoichiometric coefficient is simply the number of key components which need to be consumed to produce one product. To illustrate this, below an example for CO hydrogenation towards C1-C3 hydrocarbons is provided. 

&selectivity
carbon_balance; {CO}; {CH4}, 2{CH2CH2}, 2{CH3CH3}, 3{CH3CH2CH3}, 3{CH2CHCH3}
