PROBLEM 2 The elementary liquid phase irreversible reaction (A+B -> C) takes place in a 1 m² Mixed Flow Reactor with the equimolar mixture of A and B at the volumetric feed flow rate of 0.5 m3/min, the feed concentration of A equal to 1 mol/L, and the feed temperature of 300K. When the reaction takes place under isothermal conditions at 300K the conversion of A is 30%. When the reaction takes place adiabatically the exit temperature is 350K and...
The production of methyl bromide is an irreversible liquid-phase reaction that follows an elementary rate law. The reaction CNBr (A) + CH3NH2 (B)àCH3Br (C) + NCNH2 (D) is carried out isothermally in a semi-batch reactor. A solution of methylamine (B) in extra dry ethanol at a concentration of 0.025 mol/L is to be fed at a rate of 0.05 L/s to an solution of bromine cyanide (A) in extra dry ethanol contained in a glass-lined reactor. The initial volume of...
PROBLEM 1 The elementary liquid phase irreversible reaction (A + B -> C) is to be carried out in a flow reactor.

5.33. When B is mixed with A, the liquid phase reaction A+BC rkCA has a rate constant k 0.2 min. This reaction is to be carried out isothermally in a CSTR at steady state. The reactant A costs $2/mol and reactant B costs $0.10/mol. The product C sells for $6/mol. The cost of operating the reactor is $0.05 per liter per hour. We wish to produce 360,000 moles of C per day to meet the market demands The available reactants,...
