Question: AR liquid phase reaction was carried out in a batch reactor operated at constant temperature and the data of concentration-rate values [CA, -rA] are presented

 AR liquid phase reaction was carried out in a batch reactor

AR liquid phase reaction was carried out in a batch reactor operated at constant temperature and the data of concentration-rate values [CA, -rA] are presented in the table given below: Using these data; a) Calculate the time it takes for the initial A concentration to decrease from 1.3mol/L to 0.3 mol/L in the batch reactor. b) If the same reaction takes place in a PFR with initial A concentration CAo=1.5mol/L and FAo =1000mol/hr molar rate, calculate the PFR volume to be used for the case where the conversion rate of A is 80%. c) i) If the same reaction takes place in a CSTR with initial A concentration CAo=1.2mol/L and FAo=1000mol/hr molar rate, calculate the CSTR volume to be used for the case where the conversion rate of A is 75%. c.ii) If the initial A concentration is CAo=1.2mol/L and the same reaction occurs in a CSTR with a molar rate of FAo=2000mol/hr, if it is known that the conversion rate of A is 75%, calculate the CSTR volume to be used. c. iii) Calculate the volume of CSTR to be used for CAf=0.3mol/L if the same reaction occurs in a CSTR with initial A concentration CAo=2.4mol/L and FAo=1000mol/hr molar rate
