Question 1 30 Marks In A Chemical Industrial Setting The Irreversible Gas Phase Non Elementary Reaction Is To Be Carri 1 (48.45 KiB) Viewed 92 times

Question 1 [30 Marks) In a chemical industrial setting the irreversible gas-phase non-elementary reaction is to be carried out isothermally in a constant-pressure batch reactor as part of a pilot study. The feed mixture is at a temperature of 300°C, a pressure of 1013.25kPa, and its composition is 40% A and 60% B. The chemical laboratory data collected under identical conditions are as follows: A+B → х 0.0 0.2 0.4 0.6 1/-ra (dm .min)/mol * 10% 1.66 3.33 8.29 16.6 (a) Estimate the volume of a plug-flow reactor required to achieve 45% conversion of A for an entering volumetric flow rate of 50 m/min. [12] (b) Estimate the volume of a CSTR required to take the effluent from the plug-flow reactor above and achieve total conversion of 55% based on species A fed to the PRF. [12] (c) What is the total volume of the two reactors? [6]
