For example 2-5, when two CSTRs and one PFR are used, and all conditions are the same, what is the worst arrangement, and at that time, what is the size of each reactor?

 

 

Example 2-5 An Adiabatic Liquid-Phase Isomerization The isomerization of butane n-C,H10 2 i-C,H10 was carried out adiabatically in the liquid phase. The data for this reversible react are given in Table E2-5.1. (Example 11.3 shows how the data in Table E2-5.1 w generated.) TABLE E2-5.1 RAW DATA 0.0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.65 -TA(kmol/m3 - h) 39 53 59 38 25 Don't worry how we got this data or why the (1/-rA) looks the way it does; we v see how to construct this table in Chapter 11, Example 11-3. It is real data fo real reaction carried out adiabatically, and the reactor scheme shown below Figure E2-5.1 is used.
