3 Batch Reactor Mole Balance

4 Constantly Stirred Tank Reactor Mole Balance CSTR or MFR

5 Plug Flow Reactor (PFR) Mole Balance F df The integral form V = A is: A F A0 r A This is the volume necessary to reduce the entering molar flow rate (mol/s) from F A0 to the exit molar flow rate of F A.

6 Packed Bed Reactor Mole Balance PBR F A0 F A + r A dw = dn A dt The integral form to find the catalyst weight is: W = F A F A0 df A r A

7 F A0 = C Ao v o Space time and space velocity τ = is called space time (s) = V/v o Space velocity = 1/τ, where; F A0 = Molar feed rate of key reactant A (mol/s) C Ao = Concentration of key reactant A in the feed (mol/m 3 ) v o =Volumetric flow rate of feed to the reactor (m 3 /s) V = volume of the reactor For constant volume systems v = v o where v is volumetric flow rate leaving the reactor

8 Reactor Mole Balance Summary

9 Conversion Consider the general reaction: aa + bb - cc + dd We will choose A as bases of calculation (i.e. Key reactant) The limiting reactant is usually taken as the key reactant Then: A + (b/a)b (c/a)c + (d/a)d X A = moles reacted/moles fed

10 Design Equations The following design equations are for single reactions only Design equations for multiple reactions will be given later

11 Summary

12 Batch Stoichiometric Table

13 Concentration: Batch Systems Constant Volume Batch: Note: if the reaction occurs in the liquid phase or if a gas phase reaction occurs in a rigid (e.g., steel) batch reactor Then etc. If then And we have r A =f(x)

14 Flow System Stoichiometric Table

15 Concentration: Liquid Flow System Flow Stystem: Liquid Phase Flow System: etc. If the rate of reaction were then we would have This gives us -r A = f(x). Consequently, we can use the methods discussed in Chapter 2 to size a large number of reactors, either alone or in series.

17 Multiple Reactions Use molar flow rates and concentrations; DO NOT use conversion! Types of Multiple Reactions 1. Series Reactions 2. Parallel Reactions 3. Complex Reactions: Series and Parallel 4. Independent
