The exothermic reaction
was carried out adiabatically and the following data recorded:
X | o | 0.2 | 0.4 | 0.45 | 0.5 | 0.6 | 0.8 | 0.9 |
-rA (mol/dm3•min) | 1 | 1.67 | 5.0 | 5.0 | 5.0 | 5.0 | 1.25 | 0.91 |
The entering molar flow rate of A was 300 mol/min.
(a) What are the PFR and CSTR volumes necessary to achieve 40% conversion? (VPFR = 72 dm3 , VCSTR = 24 dm3)
(b) Over what range of conversions would the CSTR and PFR reactor volumes be identical?
(e) What is the maximum conversion that can be achieved in a 105-dm3 CSTR?
(d) What conversion can be achieved if a 72-dm3 PFR is followed in series by a 24-dm3 CSTR?
(e) What conversion can be achieved if a 24-dm3 CSTR is followed in a series by a 72-dm3 PFR?
(f) Plot the conversion and rate of reaction as a function of PFR reactor volume up to a volume of 100 dm3.
