1. A first-order irreversible reaction, A B, with k = 0.01 s -1 is required 30% conversion.
(Assume constant volume)
(a) How long will it take in a batch reactor? (b) What CSTR reactor volume and residence time would be required given a volumetric flow rate of 10-3 m3/s? (c) What PFR reactor volume and residence time would be required given a volumetric flow rate of 10-3 m3/s? 2. This liquid phase reaction has the rate equation -rA = kCa2CBCD-1 The reaction rate constant is k = 1.5L/molhr at 350oK. The activation energy of the reactionis 100kJ/mol. The initial concentration are: C A0 = 2.0 mol/L, CB0 = 4.0 mol/L, CC0 = 0 mol/L, and CD0 = 1.0 mol/L. We will neglect any reaction that takes place while the initial charge is being added to the reactor, and while the reactor and contents are being heated to reaction temperature. (a) How much time is required for the concentration of A to reach 0.10 mol/L if the reactor run isothermally at 350oK? What is the concentration of C at this time? (b) The reactor will be run isothermally at 350oK. The concentration of A in the final product must be less than 0.20mol/L, and the molecular weight of C is 125. An average of 10 hours is required between the batches in order to empty and clean the reactor, and prepare for the next batch. How large must the reactor be in order to produce 200,000 kg of C annually (with 8000 hours per year of operation)? (c) We want to produce 200,000 kg of C annually, with a final concentration of A of 0.20 mol/L or less. The only reactor available has a working volume of 1400 L. At what temperature does the reactor have to be operated, if it is operated isothermally? Once again, an average of 10 hours is required between batches to empty and clean the reactor, and to prepare for the next batch. 3. The gas-phase reaction 2A + 4B 2C is first order in A and first order in B is to be carried out isothermally in a plug-flow reactor. The entering volumetric flow is 2.5L/min, and the feed is equimolar in A and B. The entering temperature and pressure are 727 oC and 10 atm, respectively. The specific reaction rate at this temperature is 4L/molmin and the activation energy is 15,000 cal/mol. (a) What is the volumetric flow rate when the conversion of A is 25%? (b) What is the rate of reaction at the entrance to the reactor. (c) What is the rate of reaction when the conversion of A is 40%? (d) What is the concentration of A at the entrance to the reactor? (e) What is the concentration of A at 40% conversion of A? (f) What is the volume of the specific reaction at 1227oC.
