The design equation for a plug flow reactor is ___________(a) V = (int_0^Xfrac{dX}{-rA} )(b) V = FA0 (int_0^Xfrac{dX}{-rA} )(c) (frac{V}{-rA} = int_0^Xfrac{dX}{FA0} )(d) FA0 = -rA(int_0^Xfrac{dX}{V} ) |

Answer» The correct option is (b) V = FA0 (int_0^Xfrac{dX}{-rA} ) Explanation: To determine the volume of PFR required to obtain a certain conversion, the mole balance equation in terms of molar flowrate and conversion is written and integrated to get the above equation. |
