Want to produce $200$ tons per year $(1$ year $330$ days$)$ of ethylene glycol. The reactor operates continuously and isothermally at a temperature of $60C.$Ethylene oxide is fed to the reactor together with water in a volume ratio of $1$:$3$ where ethylene oxide has a concentration of $1\frac{\text{k}\text{m}\text{o}\text{l}}{m^3}.$ If the conversion to

ethylene oxide is $80\%,$ if it is known $KA=0\mathrm{.}0311/$ minute

Reaction: $C2H4O+H2OHOCH2CH2OH$

a$.$ Determine: Reactor Volume required. The reacton is cylindrical in which there is $20\%$ empty space.

b$.$ Determine the dimensions of the reactor $($If the ratio $D$:$H=1$:$2).$
