Chapter Three Series & Parallel Reactor Setup Sheet No. 3
1- A liquid reactant stream (1 mol/lit) passes through two mixed flow reactors in series.
The concentration of A in the exit stream of 1st. reactor is 0.5 mol/lit. Find the
concentration in the exit stream of 2nd. reactor. The reaction is second order with
respect to A and (V2/V1=2).
2- An aqueous reactant stream (4 mol/lit) passes through a mixed flow reactor followed
by a plug flow reactor . Find the concentration at the exit of the PFR if in the mixed
flow reactor CA= 1 mol/lit, the reaction is second order with respect to A, and the
volume of PFR unit is three times of mixed reactor.
using two mixed flow reactor and find the size of the two units needed. Sketch the
final design chosen.
