If a reaction of A and B to form Pis taking place in a batch mode operation, where the reaction rate is first-order in both the concentration of A (cA ) and B (cB ), and so second-order overall. where A (eth) + B (eth) → P (s). and a side reaction is taking place forming solubleproduct Q, with zero value.This unwanted side reaction has the following kinetics: zero-order in both components A and B. The selectivity for this reaction is low: only about 0.1% of A is converted to Q, with the stoichiometry given by: A (eth) + 2B (eth) = Q (eth). If we want to shift from batch operation to semi batch operation for the purpose of reducing the amount of Q (by-product) produced and trying to maintain the production rate of P. How we can do so?
