P can be produced from A according to the first-orderirreversible reaction: A→P −rA=kACA [mol m−3 s−1] The reaction iscarried out in a non-ideal reactor, containing two immiscibleliquid phases. The compounds A and P is located (exclusively) inthe dispersed phase. The continuous phase is ideally mixed. For thedispersed phase, the RTD diagram has been determined experimentallyand is given in Figure P1.
The average residence time in the reactor equals 100 s.
a) Determine the values of a and t*b) Give a plot (according to scale) of the F(t)-curve.
It is known that ideal micro-mixing prevails within the reactor,and an experimental value of kA = 0.0167 s-1 was obtained fromlaboratory experiments at the same conditions as the reactor isoperated.
c) Determine the conversion in the reactord) Determine the variance of the reactor and compare this to anideal PFR, and discuss differences/agreemente) Also, determine the conversion of A if the reactor is modelledas an ideal PFR, and discuss differences/agreement with the answerobtained at c)
