Which risk increases in an industrial reactor when the available heat is significantly removed during an exothermic reaction?

💡 Explanation

Thermal runaway suppression occurs due to insufficient heat dissipation; reaction rates accelerate following Arrhenius equation behaviour releasing further heat in positive feedback because heat cannot be removed sufficiently; therefore a dangerous temperature spike risk increases rather than thermal equilibrium which would decrease reaction rate.
