1. An important time parameter in reaction engineering is the reactor space time t , the time needed to process one reactor volume of uid. For an ideal plug-ow reactor (PPR), a mass balance gives a design equation of |where Can is the initial concentration of reactant A, t. is the fractional conversion, and no. is the rate of reaction. We can see that by plotting fractional conversion data against -1fnc space time can be calculated by integration. Rate data were collected straight from the reactor with the innovative rate meter. f3 m 0 3 .94 I 0.1 2.91 {1.2 0.3 1.95 0.4 1.4? as _E 0.6 *1? 0.8 {3.34 Given Can = 5M calculate the space time of an ideal PPR. Let fAin = 0.05 and them = 0.?5
