4 The feed consists of both - Inerts I and Species A with the ratio of inerts I to the species A being 2 to 1. Elementary liquid phase reaction carried out in a CSTR 4

5 a)Assuming the reaction is irreversible for CSTR, A  B, (K C = 0) what reactor volume is necessary to achieve 80% conversion? b)If the exiting temperature to the reactor is 360K, what is the corresponding reactor volume? c)Make a Levenspiel Plot and then determine the PFR reactor volume for 60% conversion and 95% conversion. Compare with the CSTR volumes at these conversions. d)Now assume the reaction is reversible, make a plot of the equilibrium conversion as a function of temperature between 290K and 400K. 5

34 A. Constant Ta (17B) Ta = 300K Additional Parameters (18B – (20B): B. Variable T a Co-Current C. Variable T a Counter Current Guess T a at V = 0 to match T a0 = T a0 at exit, i.e., V = V f 34

35 All equations can be used from before except T a parameter, use differential T a instead, adding m C and C PC 35

36 In - Out + Heat Added = 0 All equations can be used from before except dT a /dV which must be changed to a negative. To arrive at the correct integration we must guess the T a value at V=0, integrate and see if T a0 matches; if not, re-guess the value for T a at V=0 36

42 The rate law for this reaction will follow an elementary rate law. Where K e is the concentration equilibrium constant. We know from Le Chaltlier’s law that if the reaction is exothermic, K e will decrease as the temperature is increased and the reaction will be shifted back to the left. If the reaction is endothermic and the temperature is increased, K e will increase and the reaction will shift to the right. 42
