Tutorial Lesson Four

The document presents two problems related to gas phase reactions in a plug flow reactor (PFR). The first problem involves determining the reactor volume required for an 80% conversion of a first-order reaction at a specific temperature and pressure. The second problem addresses a second-order reaction, calculating the reactor size for a 60% conversion at given flow rates, including a scenario where the flow rate is doubled.

PROBLEM ONE ‘Acgas phase first order reaction A(g) — 28 (g)+C(g) is at carried out in a PFR operated isothermally at 650 K. The pure reactant enters the reactor ata flow rate of 400 L/min. Determine the volume of the PER if 80% conversion of A has to be achieved when the reactor pressure is maintained at 400 KPa absolute>Take rate constant k= 0.15 min? and R= 8,314 S/mol-k.
