    CSTR in Series and in Parallel: Lec 6 Week 8

    Uploaded by

    Paen Zulkifli
    This document discusses CSTR reactors in series and parallel configurations for carrying out chemical reactions. For CSTRs in series, the effluent concentration from one reactor becomes the feed concentration for the next reactor. The conversion will be the same for each reactor in the series. For CSTRs in parallel, the total feed is split equally among the individual reactors and the products are combined, with the conversion in each reactor being the same due to identical operating conditions. A quiz question is provided to derive the design equation for a liquid phase second order reaction in parallel CSTRs.

    Lec 6 week 8

    CSTR in series
    A first-order
    reaction with no
    change in the
    volumetric flow
    rate (v = v0) is
    to be carried out in
    two CSTRs
    placed in series.
    For the 1st reactor:
    Mole balance :

    The effluent concentration of reactant A from


    the first CSTR can be found from the
    following concentration:

    Substituting for Cn in terms of conversion and Since the reactors are


    of equal size, operate at the same temperature, and have identical feed
    rates. the conversion wilI be the same for each reactor:
    x1 = X2 = ... = Xn = X

    CSTR in Series

    CSTR in Parallel

    The individual reactor volume

    Since the reactors are of equal size, operate


    at the same temperature, and have identical
    feed rates. the conversion wilI be the same
    for each reactor:

    X1 = X2 = ... = Xn = X

    Quiz
    Drive the design equation for liquid
    phase second order reaction carried
    out in CSTRS connected in parallel.
