Example 6.3 FINDING THE BEST REACTOR SETUP

In the presence of a specific enzyme E, which

acts as a homogeneous catalyst, a harmful
organic A present in industrial waste water
degrades into harmless chemicals. At a given
enzyme concentration CE test in a laboratory

a. One possibility is to use a long tubular reactor (assume plug
flow) with possible recycle of exit fluid. What design do you
recommend? Give the size of the reactor, tell if it should be
used with recycle, and if so determine the recycle flow rate in
cubic meters per minute (m3/min). Sketch your recommended
design.
B. Another possibility is to use one or two tirred tanks (assume
ideal). What two-tank design do you recommend, and how
much better is it than the one-tank arrangement.
C. What arrangement of plug flow and mixed flow reactors
would you use to minimize the total volume of reactors
needed? Sketch your recommended design and show the size
of selected. We should mention that separation and recycle of

SOLUTION
First calculate and tabulate 1/-r A at the measured CA. This is shown
as the last line of table E6.3. Nest, draw the 1/-r A vs CA curve. This is
seen to be U-shaped, so we must prepare to deal with an
autocatalytic type reacting system.

CA0 = konsentrasi A awal saat masuk reaktor

CA = konsentrasi A setelah (menit)

Part (c) Solution. Following the reasoningin this

chapter we should used a mixed flow reactor
followed by a plug flow reactor. So with Fig. E6.3c
we find

Menghitung volume
For the MFR (mixed flow reactor)
Vm = m = 0.1(1.2) = 0.12 m3
For the PFR (plug flow reactor)
Vp = p = 0.1(5.8) = 0.58 m3
V total = Vm + Vp = 0.12 m3 + 0.58 m3
= 0.7 m3

kesimpulan
Untuk soal a,b dan c menghasilkan volume
reaktor yang berbeda-beda, yaitu:
a. 1,08 m3,

b. 9,0 m3 dan 2,19 m3

c. 0.7 m3
Dari
jawaban a,b dan c yang menghasilkan
volume reaktor terkecil adalah jawaban c
sehingga reaktor c lebih efisien digunakan karena
memerlukan volume (ukuran) reaktor terkecil.
