is carried out isothermally in a batch reactor. The catalyst deactivation follows a first
order decay law and is independent of the concentrations of both A and B. Derive an
expression for conversion as a function of time and calculate conversion after 10 minutes
at 300 K.
Additional information:
CA0 = 1 mol/dm3
V0 = 1 dm3
W = 1 kg
kd = 0.1 min-1 at 300 K Ed/R = 2,000 K
k1 =0.2 dm /(kg cat. min) at 300 K Ea/R = 500 K
