 Question 3 (Reactor sizing) 14 points Lactose (A) decomposes to D-galactose

Question 3 (Reactor sizing) 14 points Lactose (A) decomposes to D-galactose and D-glucose fructose using the enzyme lac- tase. CHOW OH OOH OH OH CHOW OH OH The following data is given: Reaction order: second Reactor type: plug flow reactor (PER) Desired conversion: X 0.75 Rate constant = 1.5 mmol/l Flow rate: V = 10 m/ Initial concentration: C = 1 1) Find the correct design equation! (2P) 2) Give the rate law! (2P) 3) Find a stoichiometric correlation between CA and X! (2 P) 4) Combine all information into the design equation! (2P) 5) Solve the equation in order to get the necessary reaction reactor volume (PFR, CSTR) or time (BR)! (6 P)
