is carried out adiabatically in a series of staged packed-bed reactors with interstage cooling. The lowest temperature to which the reactant stream may be cooled is 27C. The feed is equal molar in A and B and the eatalyst weight in each reactor is sufficient to achieve 99.9% of the equilibrium conversion. The feed enters at 27C and the reaction is carried out adiabatically. If four reactors and three coolers are available, what conversion may be achieved? Additional information: HRs=30,000cal/molACPA=CP0=CPC=CPO=25cal/gmolKKv(50C)=500,000FAM=10molA/min First prepare a plot of equilibrium conversion as a function of temperature. [Partial ans: T=360K.X=0.984:T=520K,X=0.09:T=540K. Xs=0.0571 14. Figure 8-8 shows the temperature-conversion trajectory for a train of reactors with interstage heating. Now consider replacing the interstage heating with injection of the feed strean in three equal portions as shown here
