Question:

Using the results from Example 22.4, Part (b), determine the conversion in the reactor if the flow pattern is laminar and not plug flow.


Example 22.4

Consider a simple liquid phase reaction in which reactant A is converted to product B. The reaction is second order in A and the kinetics are given by the equation-TA (reaction rate) = mol/L/s = 0.05c [mol/L]

A stream of material A of concentration 10 mol/L is fed to an isothermal reactor at a rate of 8 L/s. Determine the volume of the reactor to obtain 95% conversion of A assuming 1. A CSTR is used 2. A PFR is used
