Example CD P2-DB
A 400 L CSTR and a 100 L PFR are available to process 1.0 L/s of feed. Feed contains: 41% A, 41% B, 18% inerts. Consider the irreversible, gas-phase reaction A + B C to be carried out at 10 atm, 227°C.
a. Estimate the volume of a PFR required to achieve 30% conversion of A for an entering volumetric flow rate of 2 m3/min.
b. Estimate the volume of a CSTR required to take the effluent from the PFR above and achieve 50% total conversion (based on species A fed to the PFR).
c. What is the total volume of the two reactors?
d. What volume of a single PFR is necessary to achieve 60 & 80% conversion?
e. What is the volume of a single CSTR necessary to achieve 50% conversion?
f. What volume of a 2nd CSTR is needed to raise conversion from 50 to 60%?
g. Plot the rate of reaction and conversion as a function of PFR volume
h. Give a critique of the answers to this problem.
