Chemical kinetics: chemical reaction rate and reaction mechanism reactor design one of the most important field to determine whether a chemical process is economically feasible or not. Rate equation (rate law) for r j is solely a function of the properties of the reactant. Rate law can be used to derive the general mole balance equation for the four most common types of industrial reactors.

If all the system variables are spatially uniform throughout the system volume Various reaction rate with the position in the system volume Total rate of generation for total system volume that is divided into M subvolumes Let M and V0: Substitution for Gj Batch reactors
F jo = F j = 0 Perfect mixing: no variation in the rate of reaction throughout the reactor volume Integral form of the mole balance on batch reactor Used for small-scale operation, for testing new processes that have not been fully developed, for manufacture of expensive products, and for processes that are difficult to convert to continuous operations High conversion but high labor costs per batch, the variability of products from batch to batch, and difficulty of large-scale production AB Continuous-flow reactors
Continuous-Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR)
Assumption: Steady state Assumption: Well-mixed Tubular reactor
Packed-Bed Reactor (PBR)
If negligible catalyst decay & no pressure drop through the reactor Example 1 AB, the first order reaction is carried out in a tubular reactor in which the volumetric flow rate is constant, i.e., =o 1. Concentration profile As the species A is consumed, both F A and C A is decreased C A =F A / o Concentration profile as a function of reactor volume 2. Derivation of equation relating V to C AO , C A , k, and Mole balance on species A for a tubular reactor Rate law Constant volumetric flow rate Industrial reactors
Liquid-phase reactions
Semibatch reactor -Same disadvantages as the batch reactor -Temperature control by regulation of the feed rate -Capability of minimizing unwanted side reactions through the maintenance of a low concentration of one of the reactant CSTR -Single or as a part of a series or battery of CSTRs -Good temperature control (intense agitation) -The lowest conversion of reactant per V among the flow reactors Gas phase reactions
PFR -Easy maintenance (no moving part) -The highest conversion per V -Difficulty in controlling temperature within the reactor -Hot spot in exothermic reaction PBR -Heterogeneous gas-phase reaction -The highest conversion per weight of catalyst among catalytic reactors -Difficulty in controlling temperature within the reactor -Channeling of gas flow, resulting in ineffective use of parts of reactor bed Fluidized-bed reactor -Analogus to CSTR (well mixing) -Even temperature distribution throughout the bed -Handle with large amounts of feed and solids -Easy to replace or regenerate catalyst -High cost of the reactor and catalyst regeneration equipment Examples of gas phase industrial reactors
A mole balance on species j Well mixing The kinetic rate law for r j -Solely a function of properties of reacting materials and reaction conditions -The rate of formation of species j per unit volume -An intensive quantity -An algebraic equation, not a differential equation
