#2 (20marks) As a chemical process engineer at a specialty chemical production plant, you are tasked a new isothermal, liquid-phase process to form an industrial-grade with designing solvent, B, from a new starting feedstock, A. -TA = k ch dm3 k = 0.1 mol.min The new feedstock is available as pure A at a concentration (Cro) of 1 mol/dm', and can be delivered to the process at a steady-state volumetric flow rate (vo) of 10 dm /min. You are given two isothermal reactors of equal volume (each is 100 dm'). Find the conversion, X after each reactor for both the options. (1)Reactors in series: PFR followed by a CSTR. (ii)Reactors in series: CSTR followed by a CSTR. (Stoichiometric table with combined rate law with conversion (x) and CAO (4 marks), and conversion after each reactor (4 marks each)) Design equation: dx PFR Lav -TA FAO FAOX -ralx1. and 2nd CSTR [V = FAO(X7-X1) -Talx2 ] 1* Cstr, (v = Integration formula, S (1-2)2 dx 1-X
