Plug flow reactor design

Develop a plug-flow-reactor design equation from the material balance. To properly size a reactor for this reaction and feedstock, a relationship between reactor volume, conversion rate of feed,... 

To carry out the integrations in the batch and plug-flow reactor design equations (2-9) and (2-16), as well as to evaluate the CSTR design equation (2-13), we need to know how the reaction rate —r varies with the concentration (hence conversion) of thereacting species. This relationship between reaction rate and concentration is developed in Chapter 3,... 

If both sides of the plug-flow reactor design equation (2-16) are divided by the entering volumetric flow rate and then the left-hand side is put in terms of space time, the equation takes the form...

Rates were calculated using a plug-flow reactor design equation and the differential conversion of n-butane to each of the products. Activity decreases quickly within ten minutes and deactivates significantly more slowly for the remainder of the reaction up to one hour. Rapid deactivation followed by much slower deactivation on sulfated zirconia has been reported by several authors (9). 

Before one can obtain a numerical value for t from the integral form of the plug-flow reactor design equation, given by (22-27), it is necessary to focus on the dimensionless kinetic rate law, which could be rather complex.
