  • Q8: Relax the restriction that there is no A inside of the isothermal CSTR at time zero. Instead the concentration of the reactant A is cA, which is not zero, when the reactor is started. The other conditions hold, namely the reaction is irreversible and first-order with rate coefficient k, and both the volumetric flow rate Q and concentration of A in the feed cA; are constant. Develop an equation to model the concentration of reactant A as a function of time, which is called the transient response. Use the 8 step method to develop the model and solve the differential equation using the integrating factor method. Examine the limiting cases based on time, t → 0 and t → 0, and briefly describe the significance of the results.See Answer

  • Q10: Reactant A is loaded into a batch reactor. The temperature of the reactor is raised to start the first-order irreversible decomposition reaction of A to products.Develop a model for the transient response of reactant A in the batch reactor. The initial concentration of reactant A in the reactor is c40. The volume of the reactor, V, is fixed. Use the 8 step method to develop the model and solve the differential equation using the characteristic equation method. Use your model to write an equation that predicts how long it takes for 65% of reactant A to decompose.See Answer
  • Q11: A continuous stirred tank is often used to isolate a process stream to protect the downstream equipment. Thus it serves as a buffer between components such as reactors, heat exchangers, and mixers in a processing line. A process produces species A according to a program; the concentration of A increases linearly for a period of time, levels out for a period of time, then decreases linearly for a period of time. The times and the starting and ending concentrations are always different. These differences create problems in operating the equipment downstream since each component has to adapt to the differing concentrations. An alternative is to feed species A to a continuous stirred tank just after it's produced and deliver a predictable concentration to all of the downstream equipment. In this problem, we will complete one part of the tank design by finding the response to the linear ramp up in concentration. The concentration of species A fed to a continuous stirred tank increases linearly with time at a rate E, which has units of concentration per time. We model this ramp up in the concentration as cA1 = CAm + Et, where t is time. The concentration CAm is the starting value in the feed pipe and is a constant. The volumetric flow rate in the pipe is constant although the reactant concentration varies. The continuous stirred tank has a volume V. The initial concentration of species A in the tank is CA0. Find the transient response of species A in the tank to the linear ramp up in concentration. Use the 8 step method to develop the model. For the purpose of this problem, let CAm = CA0. How is time zero defined?See Answer

  • Q17: ammonia is synthesized from dinitrogen and dihydrogen in the presenceof a metal catalyst. Fishel et al. used a constant volume reactor systemthat circulated the reactants over a heated ruthenium metal catalyst andthen immediately condensed the product ammonia in a cryogenic trap [c.T. Fishel, R. J. Davis, and J. M. Garces, J. Catal. 163(1996) 148]. A schematic diagram of the system is: From the data presented in the following tables, determine the rates ofammonia synthesis (moles NH3 produced per min per gcat) at 350°Cover a supported ruthenium catalyst (0.20 g) and the orders of reactionwith respect to dinitrogen and dihydrogen. Pressures are referenced to298 K and the total volume of the system is 0.315 L. Assume that noammonia is present in the gas phase. See Answer

  • Q19:The gas phase reaction A + B → C occurs in a flow reactor. The rate law is given below. KCACB -TA 1 + KCA The initial concentration of A is 1 M and the initial concentration of B is 1.5 M in the feed. k = 0.1 min¹ M-¹ and K = 2.5 M¹¹. The inlet volumetric flow rate is 2 L/min.

  • Q20:The gas phase reaction A + B → C follows an elementary rate law and occurs in a 1 m³ CSTR. The inlet volumetric flow rate is 0.5 m³ min¹¹ and the entering concentration of A is 1 M. The reaction occurs isothermally at 300K. For an equimolar feed of A and B, a 20% conversion is achieved. When the reaction is carried out adiabatically, the exit temperature is 350K and the conversion is 40%. The heat capacities of A, B, and C are 25, 35, and 60 kJ/(mol*K), respectively and are independent of temperature. It is proposed to add a 2nd CSTR of the same size in series with the first CSTR. There is a heat exchanger attached to the 2nd CSTR with UA = 4.0 kJ/(min*K), and the coolant fluid enters and exits the heat exchanger at the same temperature of 350K. Assume all reactors operate isobarically. A. What is the rate of heat removal needed for isothermal operation in the first CSTR? B. What is the final conversion at the exit of the second reactor if the first reactor is operated isothermally? C. What would the final conversion be if the second CSTR were replaced with a 1 m³ PFT with Ua = 10(kJ/(m³*min*K)) and T₁ = 300K. D. A chemist suggests that the reverse reaction cannot be neglected. From thermodynamics, we know that Kc = 2 L/mol at 310K. What conversion can be achieved if the entering temperature to the PFR in part C is 300K and Ta = 300K? You may assume that the first CSTR achieves a conversion of 0.2 for the problem.See Answer
