Question: The kinetic parameters, k 1 , k 2 and k 3 at 1 0 0 C are given as 2 . 0 , 5 1

The kinetic parameters, k1,k2 and k3 at 100C are given as
2.0,510-4m7.08.kmol-2.36.s-1, and 0.4, respectively. The
reactor feed is a slurry containing 1kg*m-3 of R and 20kg*m-3
of A. The concentration of S is 1.7kmolmm-3. The reactor
conversion is 80%. Determine the reactor size and total
charge weight necessary to produce the product (R) at an
and it will be necessary to shut down for 1h between batches
for product removal, cleaning, and startup. The product (R) to
be recycled to the reactor will come from 1000kg produced
daily.The two-phase isothermal reaction,
A+R+SB+RR+R
is carried out at 100C in a batch reactor. Amorphous reactant A
and a small amount of crystalline product, R, are dissolved in a
solvent, C, and produce intermediate products P and Q. The rate
equation is given as,
-rA=k2(CSO)k1CACRk3CR+(k3+1)CA
where CA and CR are the concentrations of solid reactant and
product in kg.m-3, and Cso is the initial solvent concentration in
kmol.m-3.
 The kinetic parameters, k1,k2 and k3 at 100C are given as
