Abstract Reaction kinetics play a vital role for the development of optimized design of a reactor. Due to significance of saponification process, a number of investigations had been done on its different aspects. It is evident from previous studies that maximum yield can be attained when equimolar flow of the both reactants is charged to the reactor. Due to Industrial importance of the products ethanol and sodium acetate, it is utmost desire for the process improvements to maximize its conversion, and economical utilization of raw materials. The objective this research is experimental study of shifting order kinetics for alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl acetate reaction (Saponification reaction) at constant stirring using integral shifting order analysis. For this purpose, experiments are carried out in the batch reactor at constant stirring speed and change in concentrations are determined with the time. Detailed kinetic study has been studied. It is concluded that hydrolysis of ethyl acetate reac
