The acid-catalyzed irreversible liquid-phase reaction:
A → B
carried out adiabatically in a CSTR. The reaction is second order in A. The feed, which is equal molar in water (containing the catalyst) and A, enters the reactor at a temperature of 52°C and a total volumetric flow rate of 10 dm^3/min. The concentration of A entering the reactor is 4 M. Vo = 10 dm^3 /min, Cao = 4 mol/dm^3, To = 325K.
(a) What is the reactor volume to achieve 80% conversion?
(b) What conversion can be achieved in a 1000 dm^3 CSTR?
What is the exit temperature?
Additional Information:
H = -3000 cal/gmol, Cpw = 18 cal/gmol/DC, Cpa = 15 cal/gmol/DC,
k = 0.0005 at 25DC, Cpb, 15 cal/gmol/DC, E = 15,000 cal/mol
