Conversion Using Dispersion and Tanks-in-Series Models
The first-order reaction
     A ⎯⎯→B
is carried out in a 10-cm-diameter tubular reactor 6.36 m in length. The specific reaction rate is 0.25 min-1. The results of a tracer test carried out on this reactor are shown in Table E18-1.1.Calculate the conversion using (a) the closed vessel dispersion model, (b) PFR,(c) the tanks-in-series model, and (d) a single CSTR.
