Pure A is fed at a volumetric flow rate of 1000 dm³/h and at a concentration of 0.005 lb mol/ft³ to an existing CSTR, which is connected in series to an existing tubular reactor. If the volume of the CSTR is 1200 dm³ and the tubular reactor volume is 600 dm³, what are the intermediate and final conversions that can be achieved with the existing system? The reciprocal rate is plotted in Figure CDP2-E_A as a function of conversion for the conditions at which the reaction is to be carried out.
