gas phase reaction CH CH! -Ha, is carried out in a pair of flow reactor with a feed of pure ethane (CH4) entering the process at 50 molsis. The plan produces ethylene (CH4) at a rate of 15 moists. The plant layout includes two reactors connected in parallel, one CSTR and one PFR (both of unknown size). (both reactors are operated at the same temperature): 0 0.05 0.1 0.15 0.2 0.25 0.3 0.35 0.4 Conversion mol m3 -PA 0.333 0.318 0.286 0.251 0.221 0.197 0.177 0.160 0.145 0.45 0.5 0.55 0.6 0.65 0.7 0.75 0.8 0.85 Conversion mol -TA 0.131 0.116 0.101 0.086 0.072 0.059 0.047 0.038 0.030 a) If the CSTR has a known conversion of 55% and 80% of the initial feed goes to the PFR calculate the volume (m) of the CSTR b) Calculate the overall conversion of A (for the entire process) that must be achieved in order to produce ethylene at the current rate. c) Calculate the conversion that must be achieved in the PFR d) Calculate the volume of the PFR (m). In order to ensure the consistency of responses, please perform the calculation using the Simpson's 1/3 rule approximation: h $ F(X)dx = [F(X) + 4f(x)) + f(xx)] X-Xo X2 - X h= 2
