| The reactions described in Problem
6-16 are to be carried out in the reactor whose RTD is described in Example
13-7. However, the reactions are to be carried out at a lower temperature
with k1 = 0.007 (kmol/m3)1/2/s
and CT0 = 0.5 kmol/m3.
Determine the exit selectivities (a) Using the segregation model. (b) Using the maximum mixedness model. (c) Compare the selectivities in parts (a) and (b) with those that would be found in an ideal PFR and ideal CSTR in which the space-time is equal to the mean residence time. |
