Question: It is necessary to project a reactor to process a current arising from the process of refining petroleum containing the isomers 1 - butene, isobutene

It is necessary to project a reactor to process a current arising from the process of refining petroleum containing the isomers 1-butene, isobutene and trans-2-butene and water from a reaction with methanol to produce methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), an important gasoline additive. A supply stream must be processed at a pressure of 30atm, temperature of 358K, volumetric flow of 72m3h and composition according to the table below:
