Ro x=L CAD CA dx Figure 1: Custom made reactor with a linearly changing radius Q2 11 mark(s)] Consider a similar PFR as shown in Fig.1. For a reaction, A p taking place inside the reactor, the inlet concentration and flow rates are, Cao and FAo, respectively. a) Start from general mole balance and derive the differential and integral form of design equations Assuming the reaction to follow the following kinetics, derive an expression for concentration of A at the exit of the reactor b) zero order c) first orderExplanation / Answer
b ) Rate = d [A] / dt
= k [A] x 0 = k =constant.
c) Rate = d [A] / dt
= k [A] x 1
= k [A]
