• Simplest reactor – open / closed vessel
• Reactants are placed inside the reactor and allowed to react over time
• Products and unconverted reactants are removed and the process is repeated
• Closed system - unsteady state operation
• Fitted with a stirrer
• May have a jacket / cooling or heating coils inside the reactor
• Generally constant volume / some designed at constant pressure
• Materials of construction – different linings

• Used in variety of applications
• Typically for liquid phase reactions that require long reaction times
• Used only when small amount of product is required
• Favored when a process is in developmental stage or to produce expensive products
• Used to make a variety of products at different times
![Page 8: 1 BATCH REACTOR Interpretation of rate data A. SARATH BABU](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061423/56649f1d5503460f94c33a19/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

(1) Each batch is a closed system.(2) The total mass of each batch is fixed. (3) The reaction (residence) time t for all
elements of fluid is the same.(4) The operation of the reactor is inherently
unsteady-state; for example, batch composition changes with respect to
time.(5) It is assumed that, at any time, the batch
is uniform (e.g., in composition, temperature, etc.), because of efficient stirring.
Characteristics of a Batch Reactor

Advantages:
• High conversions can be obtained
• Versatile, used to make many products
• Good for producing small amounts
• Easy to Clean
Dis-advantages:
• High cost of labor per unit of production
• Difficult to maintain large scale production
• Long idle time (Charging & Discharging times) –
leads to periods of no production
• No instrumentation – Poor product quality
![Page 10: 1 BATCH REACTOR Interpretation of rate data A. SARATH BABU](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061423/56649f1d5503460f94c33a19/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
GUIDELINES FOR SELECTING BATCH PROCESSES
• Production rates:
— Sometimes batch process, if the plants have production capacity less than 10x106 lb/yr (5x106 kg/hr).
— Usually batch process, if the plants have production capacity less than 1x106 lb/yr (0.5x106 kg/hr).
— Where multiproduct plants are produced using the same processing equipment.
• Market forces:
— Where products are seasonal (e.g., fertilizers).
— Short product lifetime (e.g., organic pigments).
• Operational problems:
— Long reaction times (when chemical reactions are slow).
— Handling slurries at low flowrates.
— Rapidly fouling materials (e.g., materials foul equipment so
rapidly that shutdown and frequent cleaning are required).

• Integrate and Derive the equation
• Check whether the assumed order is correct or not by plotting the necessary graph

Differential Method Integral Method
• Easy to use and is recommended for testing specific mechanism• Require small amount of data• Involves trial and error• Cannot be used for fractional orders• Very accurate
• Useful in complicated cases
• Require large and more accurate data• No trial and error• Can be used for fractional orders• Less accurate
Generally Integral Method is attempted first and if not successful, the differential method is used.

Method of Initial Rates
The order of the reaction with respect to an individual component can be determined by making an initial rate measurement at two different initial concentrations of this species while holding all other concentrations constant between the two runs.
Advantage of the initial rate method is that complex rate functions that may be extremely difficult to integrate can be handled in a convenient manner. Moreover, when initial reaction rates are used, the reverse reactions can be neglected and attention can be focused solely on the reaction rate function for the forward reaction.

Guggenheim's Method for First-Order Reactions
• A special method to obtain the rate constant for a first-order reaction when an accurate value of the initial reactant concentration is not available.
• Requires a series of readings of the parameter used to follow the progress of the reaction at times t1, t2, t3, etc. and at times t1 + ∆, t2 + ∆, t3 + ∆ etc.
• The time increment ∆ should be two or three times the half life of the reaction.
For a I order reaction: ln(1-xA) = -kt xA = 1 - e-kt
At t1 and t1 + ∆, (xA)t1 – (xA)t1+∆ = e-kt1 (1-ek∆)
Similar equations are valid at times t2, t3, etc. In all cases, the right side will be a constant, since the time increment is a constant.

• applicable to systems that give apparent first-order rate constants.
• also applicable to irreversible first order reactions in parallel and reversible reactions that are first-order in both the forward and reverse directions.
• the technique provides an example of the advantages that can be obtained by careful planning of kinetics experiments instead of allowing the experimental design to be dictated entirely by laboratory convention and experimental convenience.
• Guggenheim's technique can also be extended to other order reactions, but the final expressions are somewhat cumbersome.

Example:
Note that k can be determined without a knowledge of the dilatometer readings at times zero and infinity.

Batch reactors are charged with reactants, closed, and heated to the reaction temperature, maintained isothermally for the duration of the reaction. After the reaction is completed, the mixture cooled, and the reactor opened, the product is discharged and the reactor is cleaned for the next batch. In industrial operations, the cycle time is constant from one batch to the next.
The time required for filling, discharging, heating, cooling, and cleaning the reactor is referred to as the turnaround time (tt).
The total batch cycle time tb is the reaction tr time plus the turnaround time tt.
tb = tr + tt
The total batch cycle time tb is used in batch reactor design to determine the productivity of the reactor.

Design of Batch Reactor
How can you call the above equation as Design equation of a Batch Reactor ??
Can we Design the Batch Reactor using the Above equation ??
What do you mean by Design ??

Design Problem
The reaction 2A R takes place in a batch reactor. Pure A is to be taken initially in the reactor. It is required to produce 3 tons of R per day. The molecular weight of R is 120. The density of A is 0.8 kg/lit. The expected conversion of A is 75%. A time of 30 min must be allowed for filling the reactor and 45 min for discharging and cleaning the reactor. Kinetic calculations show that a reaction time of 4hr 45 min is needed for the required conversion.
What size reactor must be used??
![Page 75: 1 BATCH REACTOR Interpretation of rate data A. SARATH BABU](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061423/56649f1d5503460f94c33a19/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
75
SolutionTotal batch time = ½ + ¾ + 4¾ = 6 hrs.Number of batches / day = 4Required production /batch = ¾ tons = 750kg750 kg of A is required, if xA = 100%For 75% conversion: Amount of A to be fed /batch = 750/0.75 = 1000kgVolume of 1000 kg of A = 1250 lit. Size of the vessel = 1250 lit.
What is the use of the Design equation ??
Is the above Design always valid ??
