(a) Between 0C and 100C determine the

equilibrium conversion for the elementary


aqueous reaction
GR = -14 130 J/mol CpA=CpR = constant
HR = -75 300 J/mol
Present the results in the form of a plot of temperature
versus conversion.
(b) What restrictions should be placed on the

reactor operating isothermally if we are to obtain


a conversion of 75% or higher?

Example 9.2

From the graph we see that the temperature must stay below 78C if conversion of 75%
or higher may be expected.
With the system of Example 9.2 and starting with an R-free solution, kinetic experiments
in a batch reactor give 58.1% conversion in 1 min at 65 C, 60% conversion in 10 min at
25C. Assuming reversible first-order kinetics, find the rate expression for this reaction
and prepare the conversion-temperature chart with reaction rate as parameter.

A concentrated aqueous A-solution of the previous examples (CAo = 4 mol/liter,
FAo = 1000 mol/min) is to be 80% converted in a mixed flow reactor.

(b) What is the heat duty if feed enters at 25C and product is to be withdrawn
at this temperature?

9.1. For the reaction system of Example 9.4
(a) find needed for 60% conversion of reactant using the optimal temperature
progression in the plug flow reactor.
(b) also find the exit temperature of fluid from the reactor.
Use whatever information you need from Example 9.4.

9.2. For the mixed flow reactor system of Example 9.5, we wish to get 70%
conversion in the smallest size of reactor. Sketch your recommended system
and on it indicate the temperature of the flowing stream entering and
leaving the reactor as well as T, the space time needed.

9.9. We wish to run the reaction of Example 9.4 in a mixed flow reactor to
95% conversion for a feed concentration C,, = 10 mollliter and feed rate
of u = 100 literlmin. What size of reactor would we need?
