(a)
Interpretation:
The correct statement corresponding to the effect over the conversion if the total entering volumetric flow remains constant and inerts are added to the feed stream of PBR is to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
The full form of PBR is Packed-Bed Reactor which is used for the fluid-solid heterogeneous reactions. These fluid-solid heterogeneous reactions take place at the surface of the catalyst.
The conversion, X can be defined as the moles of any species A that are reacted per mole of A fed in the reactor.
(b)
Interpretation:
The true statement corresponding to the graph plotted between the temperature,
Concept introduction:
The full form of PBR is Packed-Bed Reactor which is used for the fluid-solid heterogeneous reactions. These fluid-solid heterogeneous reactions take place at the surface of the catalyst.
The conversion, X can be defined as the moles of any species A that are reacted per mole of A fed in the reactor.
