A reaction is carried out in an adiabatic CSTR with a volume of 10,000 L. The feed solution with reactant A, at a concentration of 5 M, is supplied at 10 L s^-1 . The reaction is first-order with rate constant: k=10^13 (-12500 / T) s^-1, where T is in K The density is 1000 kg m^-3 and Cp=1.0 kcal kg^-1 K^-1 . The heat of reaction is ΔHr=-70 kJ mol^-1 (a) Calculate the reactor temperature and exit concentration for feed temperatures of 280,300, and 320 K. (b) To maintain the reactor temperatur

The adiabatic exothermic irreversible gas-phase reaction 2 A B ⟶2 C is to be carried out in a flow reactor for an equimolar feed of A and B. A Levenspiel plot for this reaction is shown in Figure P 2-9 (a) What PFR volume is necessary to achieve 50 % conversion? (b) What CSTR volume is necessary to achieve 50 % conversion? (c) What is the volume of a second CSTR added in series to the first CSTR (Part B ) necessary to achieve an overall conversion of 80 % ? (d) What PFR volume must be added to t
