The elementary gas-phase reaction
(CH3)3COOC(CH3)3àC2H6+2CH3COCH3 AàB+2C is carried out isothermally
at 400K in a flow reactor with no pressure drop. The specific
reaction rate at 50°C is 10-4 min-1 (from pericosity data) and the
activation energy is 85 kJ/mol. Pure ditert- butyl peroxide enters
the reactor at 10 atm and 127°C and a molar flow rate of 2.5
mol/min, i.e., 𝐹!" = 2.5 𝑚𝑜𝑙/𝑚𝑖𝑛. Calculate the plug-flow volume
and space-time for a CSTR for 90% conversion
