Consider the combustion of a coal particle occurring in a controlled burner. Assume the rate expression of the combustion reaction at the surface of the particle is given by: r = 106exp[-100/RgTs]Cs E in kJ mol-1 where the rate is in units of moles O2 reacted min-1 (m2 external surface)-1, Ts is the surace temperature of the coal particle in Kelvins and Cs is the surface concentration of O2. The estimated heat and mass-transfer coefficients from the gas phase to the particle are ht = 0.5 kJ minK-1m-2 dan kc = 0.5 m min-1, an the heat reaction is -150kJ (mol O2)-1. Consider the bulk temperature of the gas to be TB = 500oC and the bulk concentration of O2 will be 2 mol m-3. (a) What is the maximum temperature difference between the bulk gas and the particle? What is the observed reaction rate under that condition? (b) Determine the actual surface temperature and concentration, and therefore the actual reaction rate.

The irreversible, first order reaction of gaseous A to B occurs in spherical catalyst pellets with a radius of 2 mm. For this problem, the molecular diffusivity of A is 1.2 x 10-1 cm2 s-1 and the Knudsen diffusivity is 9 x 10-3 cm2 s-1. The intrinsic first order rate constant determined from detailed laboratory measurements was found to be 5.0 s-1. The
concentration of A in the surrounding gas is 0.01 mol L-1. Assume the porosity and the tortuosity of the pellets are 0.5 and 4, respectively. (a) Determine the Thiele modulus for the catalyst pellets. (b) Find a value for the internal effectiveness factor. (c) For an external mass-external coefficient of 32 s-1 (based on the external area of the pellets), determine the concentration of A at the surface of the catalyst pellets. (d) Find a value for the overall effectiveness factor.

J. M. Smith (J. M. Smith, Chemical Engineering Kinetics, 2nd ed., McGraw-Hill New York, 1970, p.395) presents the following observed data or Pt catalyzed oxidation of SO2 at 480oC obtained in a differential fixed-bed reactor at atmospheric pressure and bulk density of 0.8 g/cm3.

The catalyst pellets were 3.2 by 3.2 mm cylinders and the Pt was superficially deposited upon the external surface. Compute both external and temperature gradients and plot CSO2 and T versus the mass velocity. Can you draw any qualitative conclutions from this plot? If the reaction activation energy is 30 kcal/mol, what error in rate measurement attends neglect of an external T? What error prevails if, assuming linear kinetics in SO2, external concentration gradients are ignored? Hints:

8. Isobutylene (A) reacts with water on an acidic catalyst to form t-butanol (B). (CH3)2C=CH2 +H2O = (CH3)3COH When the water concentration greatly exceeds that of isobutylene and t-butanol, the reversible hydration reaction is effectively first order in both the forward and reversible directions. V. P. Gupta and W. J. M. Douglas [AICHE J., 13 (1967) 883] carried out the isobutylenehydration reaction with excess water in a stirred tank reactor utilizing a cationic exchange resin as the catalyst. Use the following data to determine the effectiveness factor for the ion exchange resin at 85oC and 3.9 percent conversion. Data: Equilibrium constant @ 85oC = 16.6 = [B]/[A] = 2.0 x 10-5 cm2 s-1 Radius of spherical catalyst particle = 0.213 mm
Density of catalyst = 1.0 g cm-3 Rate of reaction at 3.9 prent conversion = 1.11 x 10-5 mol s-1 gcat-1 CAS = 1.65 x 10-2 M (evaluated at 3.9 percent conversion) = 1.72 x 10-2 M (reactor inlet concentration) (Problem adapted from C.
