Question

CSTR with Dead Space and Bypass
The elementary reaction
A + B⎯⎯→ C+ D
is to be carried out in the CSTR shown schematically in Figure 18-15. There is both bypassing and a stagnant region in this reactor. The tracer output for this reactor is shown in Table E18-2.1. The measured reactor volume is 1.0 m³ and the flow rate to the reactor is 0.1 m³/min. The reaction-rate constant is 0.28 m³/kmol^.min. The feedis equimolar in A and B with an entering concentration of A equal to 2.0 kmol/m³. Calculate the conversion that can be expected in this reactor (Figure E18-2.1).The entering tracer concentration is C_T0 = 2000 mg/dm.³
