Q3]
Determine the optimal operating conditions (XA, t, and CR) in a mixed flow reactor to
maximize the concentration of R (CR) in the effluent, where an aqueous feed A with an initial
concentration of CA0-40 mol/m³ enters the reactor, undergoes decomposition, and exits as a
mixture containing A, R, and S.
K₁
AR, FR = k₁C, k₁ = 0.4 m³/(mol min)
SA
AS, rs = k₂CA, k₂ = 2(min), CA0 = 40 mol/m³
Consider the parallel decomposition of A of different orders with FR = 1, rs = 2CA and
IT = C. Determine the maximum concentration of desired product obtainable in
mixed flow reactor and plug flow reactor.
(1) R is desired product and CA0 = 2.
(2) S is desired product and CA0 = 4.

1. Copper is known to be toxic to fish, and in particular, the free ion Cu²+ species typically
shows greatest toxicity.
a. Calculate the speciation of Cu(II) for freshwater at a pH value of 8.3 as the hardness
increases from 20 (soft) to 100 (moderately hard) to 200 (very hard) mg/L as
CaCO3. Assume that the total divalent Cu(II) concentration is 10 µg/L.
b. Based on your findings in part (a), do you think it is appropriate to set a single
regulatory limit or should it depend on variables such as pH and hardness? Explain
your answer.
