Repeat Problem 22.29 for the case when the gas flows through the emulsion phase in plug flow.

Problem 22.29

The catalytic decomposition of ozone in fluidized beds of silica particles impregnated with Fe₂O₃ was studied by Van Swaaij and Zuiderweg. The decomposition reaction for a given temperature and catalyst loading was shown to follow a simple first-order model:

These researchers report the following experimental results:

For the case where the interchange coefficient between the bubble and emulsion phase is zero (i.e., gas in bubbles does not interact with the catalyst), determine the conversion of pure ozone feed when the emulsion phase is completely well mixed.
