a. Two CSTRs in series

For first CSTR,
V = (FAo/-rAX1) X1
=> X1 = 0.54
For second CSTR,

V = (FAo/-rAX2) (X2 X1)

=> X2 = 0.77
b. Two PFRs in Series
X1

X2

F AO
F AO
V =
dX+
dX
r A
r A
0
X
1

By extrapolating and solving, we get

X1 = 0.73 X2 = 0.90
c. Two CSTRs in parallel with the feed, FAO,
divided equally between two reactors.
FANEW/-rAX1 = 0.5FAO/-rAX1
V = (0.5FAO/-rAX1) X1
Solving we get, Xout = 0.68
d. Two PFRs in parallel with the feed equally divided
between the two reactors.
FANEW/-rAX1 = 0.5FAO/-rAX1
By extrapolating and solving as part (b), we get
Xout = 0.91
e. A CSTR and a PFR are in parallel with flow equally
divided
Since the flow is divided equally between the two
reactors, the overall conversion is the average
of the CSTR conversion (part C) and the PFR
conversion (part D)
X
o = (0.68 + 0.91) / 2 = 0.79
f. A PFR followed by a CSTR,
XPFR = 0.50 (using part(b))
V = (FAo/-rA-XCSTR) (XCSTR XPFR)
Solving we get, XCSTR = 0.87
g. A CSTR followed by a PFR,
XCSTR = 0.54 (using part(a))

h.

By extrapolating and solving, we get XPFR = 0.84

A 1.6 m3 PFR followed by two 0.5 m3 CSTRs,
For PFR,
XPFR = 0.73 (using part(b))
CSTR1: V = (FAo/-rA-XCSTR) (XCSTR XPFR) = 0.5 m3
XCSTR = 0.84
CSTR2: V = (FAo/-rA-XCSTR2) (XCSTR2 XCSTR1) = 0.5 m3
XCSTR2 = 0.96
