The reversible gas-phase dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene is achieved in an isothermal CSTR with no pressure drop. The feed enters at a volumetric flow rate of v0 = 2000 L/hour. On a molar basis the feed consists of half ethyl benzene (A) and half inerts (I) and is well mixed before it enters the reactor. The total pressure in the reactor is 6 bar (PA0 = 3 bar, PI0 = 3 bar). The molar flow rate of A is FA0 =...
