← TechnologyWhich risk increases when a PLC used within a chemical reactor's automated cooling system experiences a buffer overflow?
A)Thermal runaway of the reactor✓
B)Increased byproduct concentration production
C)Imprecise catalyst feed rate control
D)Elevated agitator energy consumption
💡 Explanation
If a PLC experiences a buffer overflow, the automated controls malfunction because the code execution becomes unpredictable, leading to a loss of Cooling; therefore, the chemical reactor faces thermal runaway, rather than byproduct changes assuming temperature regulation.
