Its capabilities will be demonstrated using some selected kinetic problems. <br><br> Kinone is organised in two modules connected to a user-friendly interface with comprehensive graphical output. <br><br> The first module is a model-based (hard-modelling) unit that can be used in Simulation or Fitting mode and under various experimental conditions such as batch and semi-batch (inlets/outlets), as well as isothermal and non-isothermal conditions. This module can simultaneously handle several ki-netic models. This makes Kinone particularly suitable for automatic model screening. In Fitting mode, multiple objective functions as well as various kinetic and experimental parameters can be fitted by a non-linear gradient-based method. Pure component spectra (absorptivities) and reaction enthal-pies are calculated without any calibration. If some of these spectra and en-thalpies are independently known, they can also be incorporated into the analysis. Kinone also allows the simultaneous local or global analysis of multiple data sets by defining appropriate groups. <br><br> The second module is a model-free (soft-modelling) unit that helps identify-ing the number of reactive species and elaborating plausible kinetic model candidates. It relies on methods such as PCA, EFA and MCR-ALS. <br><br> Kinone will be available for download free of charge as a Matlab package or as an executable file from <a href="http://www.sust-chem.ethz.ch/downloads">www.sust-chem.ethz.ch/downloads</a>text::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
