Question
Q2: Second Order Reaction Carried Out Adiabatically in a CSTR. The acid-catalyzed irreversible
liquid-phase reaction is:
A → B
The feed, which is equimolar in a solvent and A, enters the reactor at a total volumetric
low rate of 10 dm'/min with the concentration of A being 4 M. The entering temperature
is 300 K.
(a) What CSTR reactor volume is necessary to achieve 70% conversion?
(b) Redo part (a) if the feed temperature was raised to 340 K.
(c)comment on the results of (a) and (b) in regards to the effect of feed temperature on the
exit temperature and volume required.
Given:
AH (300 K) = -3300 cal/mol - C
C. = 15 cal/mol.°C
C = 15cal/mol- C
C = 18cal/mol- C
k(300 K) = 0.0005 dm /mol-min
E=15,000 cal/mol
