4. The irreversible gas-phase non-elementary reaction A +2B C is to be carried out isothermally in a constant pressure batch reactor. The feed is at a temperature of 227°C, a pressure of 1013 kPa, and its composition is 33.3% A and 66.7% B. Laboratory data taken under identical conditions are as follows: -rA (mol/dm3.s)x 103 0.010 0.005 0.002 0.001 XA 0.0 0.2 0.4 0.6 a) Find the volume of a plug-flow reactor required to achieve 30% conversion of A for an entering volumetric flow rate of 2m3/min. b) Find the volume of a CSTR required to take the effluent from the plug-flow reactor (PFR) above and achieve 50% total conversion.
