Question 4. A gas phase reaction of the type A+B - C, is to be carried out isothermally in a PFR. A feed consisting of 90% of A and 10% of B enters the reactor at a temperature of 27 °C and 10 atm. The reaction is second order with respect to A and zero order with respect to B. The rate constant, ka, is 1.5 dm²/mol.s. a) Calculate the volume required to achieve 60% conversion of A for an...
QUESTION 5 The following gas-phase reaction takes place in a plug flow reactor (a tubular reactor) that has a diameter of 6 inches and cross sectional area of 0.1 ft2. A C.The reaction rate depends only on the concentration of A, CA, and has the following form: rate of destruction of A-k * CA , where k= 0.124 s-1.

3. The elementary gas-phase reaction A → B + 2C gives a rate constant of 10-4 min-1 at 50°C and has an activation energy of 85 kJ mol1. This reaction is carried out in a flow reactor that is operated isothermally at 127 °C with a negligible pressure drop. The reactor feed is pure A, entering at 127 °C and...
2) ZA → B is a gas-phase elementary reaction carried out in a PFR. Conversion of A = 80%. The feed is pure A. What is conversion when the molar feed rate is cut in half?
3. The gas phase reaction A B -C, withkCACB, is to be carried out in a steady-state PFR with feed composition of 60% A. 40% B, 0% C and 0% inerts. In the 50 L reactor, 60% of the stoichiometrically limiting reactant is converted. It is desired to achieve 85% conversion of this reactant by placing a CSTR after the PFR. How large should the CSTR be? Consider constant pressure operation in both reactors.
Hi everybody,can you help me for problem 4 in the attach . Thank
for help!
The elementary reversible reaction A + B 2C occurs in the liquid phase in isothermal CSTR. A stream containing equimolar amounts of A and B in a solvent enters. the reactor, and the conversion of A is measured to be 60%. The equilibrium conversion o A under the same inlet conditions is known to be 80%. The volumetric flowrate into the process is to be...
An isothermal (170 °C) isobaric (6 atm) catalytic gas-phase reaction is carried out in a fluidized CSTR: Assume that the reaction is elementary. The feed (benzene and hydrogen) is stoichiometric with θ。= 50-. The rate constant defined wrt benzene is 53 mol / (kgcat * min * atm) at 300 K with activation energy of 80 kJ/mol. What catalyst weight is required to reach 80% conversion? Hint: Use ideal gas law to relate pressure to concentrations (note the units of...
The homogeneous gas reaction 2A ---> 3R follows second-order kinetics. For a feed rate of 4m3/hr of pure A at 5 atm and 350oC, an experimental reactor consisting of a 2.5 cm ID pipe 2 m long gives 65% conversion of feed. A commercial plant is to treat 310 m3/hr of feed consisting of 50% A, 50% inerts at 25 atm and 350 degrees C to obtain 80% conversion. Assume plug flow in the pipe, negligible pressure drop, and ideal...
Hi, can you please help me
with F? I know that if the volume is the same, negative order
reactions would give PFR a higher yield, however, when I tried to
do it mathematically, the units won't match because of the rate
constant. I don't know how to prove that PFR would give a higher
yield. Can i use the same rate constant but with different
units?
