a) A PFR has a conversion of A of 90% (i.e. C = 0.1C), and the reaction is first order. If a dispersed plug-flow reactor has the same volume and has a dispersion number, D/vL, of 1.0, what will be the percent conversion? b) Three CFMRs of equal volume are to be used in series. The influent has a concentration of 150 mg/L of A, and the flow rate is 380 L/min. The reaction is first order and the rate constant is 0.40 hr¹. Determine: (i) The mean residence time and volume of each reactor if the removal of A is 90%. (ii) The mean residence time and volume of a single CFMR having the same removal of A (i.e. 90% removal).
