Chemical Reaction Engineering CSTR Example
CSTR Algorithm Design Equation (mole balance) Rate Law Stoichiometry Combine Solve Reaction of interest: (CH3CO)2O + H2O → 2CH3COOH A + B → 2C
Mole Balance Rate Law Stoichiometry is constant and can be included in k Stoichiometry
Combine
Solve We will use the experimental pH data and plug it into Cc to determine the conversion (X). Cc was determined from the pH by a correlation between the two. Data pH Cc (mol/dm^3) X (experiment) (theory) 2.630 0.988 .6613 .7519 2.612 0.990 .6622 2.551 1.009 .6707 2.498 1.040 .6842 2.503 1.033 .6812
