For biomedical engineers, the process could be interpreted as the injection of a solution of a medication compound A, with initial concentration CAO, into a human body, simplified as a Continuously Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR). Therefore, your task is to analyse and model this process. The equipment consists of a mixing tank, mixing pipe and CSTR.

Both tanks are well mixed and have constant volume and temperature. II. All pipes are short and contribute negligible transportation delay, III. All flow rates are constant. All densities are constant and uniform throughout. IV. The first tank is a mixing tank. V. VI.
