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.
Question 1: Design of isothermal reactors 30 Marks The irreversible, gas-phase reaction A+B D is to be carried out in an isotherma °C) plug-flow reactor (PFR) at 5.0 atm. The mole fractions of the feed streams are A 0 B 0.50, and inerts 0.30. The activation energy for the above reaction is 80 000 cal/mol. the pressure drop due to fluid friction in the reactor is so small that it can be ignored, perform the following tasks: 2T a s...

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?
An acid-catalyzed irreversible liquid-phase reaction A B is carried out adiabatically in a CSTR. The reaction is second order in A. The feed is equimolar A and solvent (S, which contains catalyst), and enters the reactor at a total volumetric flow rate of 10 dm3/min at a concentration of A of 4 mol/L. The feed enters at 300 K. The product and reactant heat capacities are 15 cal/(mol°C), the solvent is 18 cal/(mol°C). The reaction rate constant at 300 K...
(3) The gas phase reaction 2A +B- C is carried out in an isothermal PFR without pressure drop. At the entrance, the feed contains 1/2 molar fraction of A, 1/3 molar fraction of B and 1/6 molar fraction of inert chemical I. The entrance temperature is 500K and the entrance pressure is 16.4 atm. If the conversion of A at the exit is 0.8, what is the conversion of B?
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...
