You need to design a reactor $($or reactors$)$ to selectively produce desired products $B$

and $C$ from $A,$ while minimizing production of the undesired product $U,$ subject to the

following exothermic liquid phase reactions:

$AB+C,r_B=1\mathrm{.}6{10}^9{e}^{-(85,\frac{000}{T})}{c}_A^2,H=-47k\frac{J}{m}ol$

$AU,r_U=3\mathrm{.}7{10}^{12}{e}^{-(115,\frac{000}{T})}{c}_A,H=-82k\frac{J}{m}ol$

You have the flexibility to choose the type of reactor$($s$),$ residence time, inlet reactant

concentrations, operating temperature$($s$)$ and other design features.

a$.$ What type of reactor$($s$)$ and operating conditions would you select in order to max$-$

imize the yield of B$?$ EXPLAIN AND JUSTIFY YOUR ANSWER

b$.$ Would your choices differ if your objective was to maximize the selectivity to B$?$

EXPLAIN AND JUSTIFY YOUR ANSWER

c$.$ Develop the material and energy balance relationships for these reactions if they

occurred in a batch reactor, and you wanted to track components and temperatures

as a function of reaction time
