1.

An aqueous phase reaction, A 4 B, is carried out in an isothermal

a. Batch reactor, what is the time required to goes 80 percent of A to B?
b. CSTR reactor, what size of reactor is required to 80 % of A to B if initial volumetric flow
rate is 40L/min.
c. PFR reactor, what is the volume of reactor is required to 80 % of A to B if initial volumetric
flow rate is 40L/min.

Initially, pure A is fed to the reactor and rate equation is given as follows:

-rA = kCA, [mol/L.min], Where k = 0.1min-1

(Hint: Use design (performance) equations)

2. If the volume of CSTR and PFR are identical and 1000L each, what will be the conversions
achieved in each reactors based on (#1) conditions and are remained unchanged? Why?
