15 points A pulse tracer experiment was conducted in a tubular reactor and RTD function e(t) was calculated and tabulated belowin Table 1. An irreversible, aqueous-phase, elementary reaction, 2A-B-C, with k = 0.5 Lmol-1 min -1 at 320K will be carried out isothermally at 320K in this reactor, whose mean residence time was found to be 15 min from RTD studies. The feed concentration of A is 2mol/dm3. Determine the conversion that can be...
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...
