TRK 2

1. Acetic acid ( A ) is hydrolyzed in one or two or three reactors. The inlet stream
has a volumetric flow rate of 200 cm3/min and concentration of A in the feed is
CAf = 3 gmol/liter.
The reactor is operated isothermally at 300 K, at steady state and at this
condition the first-order irreversiblerate costant is 0.26 min-1 , and you may
assume constant density.
You are to maximize the conversion acetic acid in the effluent from the reactor
and you have a total three reactors with which to work. Using one or all, in any
arrangement you choose ( i.e. you are free to arrange them in series or parallel )
what is the maximize conversion possible ?
There is a PFR with a total volume of 4 liters. There is a CSTR with a total
volume of 2 liters. There is a PFR with a total volume of 3 liters.

Note : you can employ a brute (kasar ) force solution or you can think for a few
minutes and limit your calculations. Before you plow into (menghadapi) this, you
should provide ( menetapkan ) a qualitative reason for how various arrangement
or individual reactors will maximize the conversion and then you might be able to
save some yourself some work and time.

Konversi maksimal
a. Tidak diperoleh dengan pemasangan paralel dan gabungan
b. Hanya bisa dengan seri bersusunan tertentu ( didasarkan ketentuan2 yang ada)
c. RATB 2 buah, kecil diletakan di depan, jika lebih dari dua peletakan
sembarang
d. Jika ada sebuah RATB dan Sebuah RAP, RATB diletakan didepan
Penyelesaian;

1. Hitung satu RAP bervolum 4 liter………..X1=…………….X1….0,99

2. Misal klu X1 = 0,9, maka pasang RAP ke dua V= 3 l, sama dengan menghitung
RAP dengan Volum = 4 + 3= 7 liter. X2 lebih besar dari X1…….X2= 0.99
3. Misal kalu X2 = 0.95. pasang RATB didepan RAP ( satu RAP atau 2 RAP)

2.
The following gas phase reaction takes place in three CSTR is connected in series
.

A+B C ; -rA= kCACB

The volume of the first and second reactors are V1=1L and V2=2L. At the inlet of
the first reactor the volumetric flow rate is 0= 0.4 L/s and CA0=CB0=1
mol/L.Reactor operates at 25oC and the reaction rate constant is 2.63x10 -3L/mol.s
at that temperature. At the exit of the third reactor overall conversion of A is
 CA0=CB0=1…….; -rA= kCA 2
expected to be 0.95. By using graphical method determine the outlet conversions
from first and second reactor and the volume of the third reactor. Gbr 6.8

3. Reaktan A ( A --- R, CAo = 26 mol/m3 ) dimasukkan ke dalam 4 RATB yang

bervolum sama disusun secara seri ( spce time total = 2 min ). Ketika kondisi
steady state tercapai diperoleh konsentrasi A keluar pada masing-masing reaktor
yaitu 11, 5, 2, 1 mol/liter.
Untuk reaksi ini. Apakah berperilaku seperti RAP untuk A menurun dari CAo = 26
mol/m3 menjadi CAf = 1 mol/m3 . Lihat gbr 6.5 dan 6.6

4. Soal spt no 2, dengan volum RATB yang sama , berapa jumlah reaktor yang
digunakan , N ? hitung volum masing2 RATB ?
