The biodiesel formation reaction is carried out in a plug flow reactor. Oil is fed at a flowrate of 10 mol/s. Methanol is fed at a flowrate of 30 mol/s. Determine the volume of the reactor required for a conversion of 95%. Assume that the reaction is irreversible and the reaction is first order with respect to both oil and methanol. Assume that the density of the mixture stays constant along the reactor as 5000 mol/m3. The rate constant for...

You are designing a plug flow reactor that uses chlorine to destroy pathogens in water. You want to reduce the pathogen concentration from 100 pathogens/L to below 1 pathogen/L through a first-order decay process with the constant decay rate of k = 0.15/ min. You plan on treating water at a rate of 1,000 gal/min. (a) What is the minimum contact time you need to achieve this reduction (in minutes)? And what is the minimum volume (in gallons) of the...
