The elementary gas-phase reaction (CH3)3COOC(CH3)3 → C2H6 + 2CH3COCH3 A → B + 2C is carried out isothermally at 400 K in a flow reactor with no pressure drop. The reaction rate constant at 50°C is 10–4 min–1 and the activation energy is 85 kJ/mol. Pure di-tert-butyl peroxide enters the reactor at 10 atm and 127°C and a molar flow rate of 2.5 mol/min, i.e., FA0 = 2.5 mol/min. (d) There appears to be uniform leakage of Ethane through the sides of the plug-flow reactor. Redesign the tubular reactor as membrane reactor, assuming kc = 0.2 min-1. Find the plug-flow volume for 90% conversion.
