The acetic acid synthesis reaction between ethanol (CH3CH2OH) and oxygen (O2), CH3CH2OH + O2 + CH3COOH + H2O can occur isothermally in gas-phase following the elementary rate law by using a solid catalyst at 300 C and I atm. Solve the following cases related to this reaction. b) At 200 C the rate constant, k=0.04 dm mol'' min!. What is the rate constant at 300 C if the activation energy of the above catalytic reaction is 24 kJ moll? (2 Marks) [C2, CO3, PO21 c) An initial test using a packed-bed reactor (PBR) that has 15-cm internal diameter and 7- meter length shows that the pressure drops to 0.5 atm. Determine the pressure drop parameter, a if the bulk density the solid catalyst is 2000 kg m? (6 Marks) (C5, CO3, PO2] d) By using answers from (b) and (c) estimate the conversion of methanol in the PBR with 1- km length and the same internal diameter if the feed, which contains the molar ratio of CH3CH2OH:02 = 1:2 enters the reactor at 10 L min!.
