14.1 A semibatch nitration process is shown in Figure P14.1(a), compared to the continuous stirred tank reactor shown in Figure P14.1(b). FIGURE P14.1 (a) Batch reactor; (b) continuous tank reactor. (a) What controls the rate of reaction? (b) Does control over the rate of the reaction change with the size of the reactor? (c) Evaluate the inherent safety of each reactor. Is one reactor configuration inherently safer than the other? Why or why not? (d) How might you make the reaction and both processing options more inherently safe
