Example 1.4 Determine the reactor design equations for the various elementary reactions in a piston flow reactor. Assume constant temperature, constant density, and constant reactor cross section. (Whether or not all these assumptions are needed will be explored in subsequent chapters.)... 

Example 1.5 Determine the reactor design equations for elementary reactions in a CSTR. 

Example 2.2 Derive the batch reactor design equations for the reaction set in Example 2.1. Assume a liquid-phase system with constant density. 

Chapter 1 treated the simplest type of piston flow reactor, one with constant density and constant reactor cross section. The reactor design equations for this type of piston flow reactor are directly analogous to the design equations for a constant-density batch reactor. What happens in time in the batch reactor happens in space in the piston flow reactor, and the transformation t = z/u converts one design equation to the other. For component A,... 

Computational Scheme for Gas-Phase PFRs. A general procedure for solving the reactor design equations for a piston flow reactor using the marching-ahead technique (Euler s method) has seven steps ... 

The reader will appreciate that the rules for what maximizes what can be quite complicated to deduce and even to express. The safe way is to write the reactor design equations for the given set of reactions and then to numerically determine the best values for reaction time and temperature. An interior optimum may not exist. When one does exist, it provides a good starting point for the more comprehensive optimization studies discussed in Chapter 6.

Gas sparged chemical reactors are designed and used in many different geometries. These reactors are usually continuous in gas, and batch or continuous in liquid. Some of the geometries in use are bubble columns, pipe and static mixer reactors, stirred vessels, packed columns, tray columns, spray columns, jet loop reactors, and venturi ejector reactors. Design equations for each geometry are based on correlations and simpUfying assumptions, such as uniform kLa in the stirred vessel. Other gas-Uquid reactors include spray columns and spray combustors.
