[5 Marks] (d) You are employed in a small company that is trying to build a plant to produce Anychemical (A). You have sized all the pieces of equipment except the reactor(s). You cannot do the reactor sizing because you do not know the reaction rate data, nor do you have laboratory equipment to determine them. Time is of the essence and your boss wants you to estimate the reactor sizes and production rates, in three weeks' time. What would you do to obtain the desired information? Elaborate on how, when, and where would you do it. Also, who would possibly involve? [10 Marks]
