QUESTION 3 (P02, CO2, C5) An elementary hydrolysis reaction is carried out adiabatically ina CSTR. The reaction is an irreversible liquid-phase: A+B>C Yao Ypo Yso = 0.15 >C,S A mixture of A, B and solvent (S) which containing catalyst enter the reactor at a total volumetric flowrate of 20 dm*-s” with 0.5M of A concentration. The entering temperature is 500K. Given the additional information for this adiabatic reaction are: a kJ Cp, =15 Hy =-0— m4 mol-K ef mol kJ Cog = 25 Hey =50— me mol-K ey) mol Cre 240 we, =-40 4 mol-K mol J Cy =15 a mol-K Ef. dm’ ky J =0.13 | E=40 R=8.314— — PW Issexp | mol-s mol-K mol-K O-W.- Fy O,C, (TT) -[AHiy + AC, (7-T,) Fie X = 0 XLAH, | 0,CpTy + XAC Tp T= D9.C,T, + XAC, a) Determine the volume of CSTR in order to achieve 80% conversion at adiabatic operation.
