Question: The elementary liquid-phase reactions (1) A+ 2B 2C (2) A+C 2D are carried out adiabatically in a 10 dm 3 PFR. After streams A
The elementary liquid-phase reactions
(1) A+ 2B → 2C
(2) A+C→ 2D
are carried out adiabatically in a 10 dm3 PFR. After streams A and B mix, species A enters the reactor at a concentration of CA0 = 2 mol/dm3 and species B at a concentration of 4 mol/dm3. The entering volumetric flow rate is 10 dm3/s. Assuming you could vary the entering temperature between 300 K and 600 K, what entering temperture would you recommend to maximize the concentration of species C exiting the reactor? (±25°K). Assume all species have the same density.
