Question 45
CHMCQ2 marksNeeds review
A first-order liquid phase reaction
is carried out in two isothermal plug flow reactors (PFRs) of volume 1 m
each, connected in series. The feed flow rate and concentration of
to the first reactor are 10 m
h
and 1 kmol m
, respectively. At steady-state, the concentration of
at the exit of the second reactor is 0.2 kmol m
. If the two PFRs are replaced by two equal-volume continuously stirred tank reactors (CSTRs) to achieve the same overall steady-state conversion, the volume of each CSTR, in m
, isYour answerChoose one option.
