11. (a) Derive an expression for a continuous flow recycle reactor.


Or

(b) Consider a gaseous feed CA = 100, CB0 = 200 to a steady-flow reactor operated at
constant T and P. The isothermal gas phase reaction tacking place is A+B → R+S for
XA= 0.8, find CA , CB and XB .

12. (a) A gaseous fuel feed of pure A with CA0 = 2 mol/l and FA0 = 100 mol/min decomposes
to give a verity of products in a plug flow reactor 22 l. The kinetics and stoichiometry
of the reaction are given by A → 2.5 products, -rA = 10min-1 CA. Find the conversion
of A in the reactor.
Or

(b) A aqueous feed of A and B 400 l/min with C A0 = 100 mmol/l and CB0 = 200 mmol/l is
to be converted to product in a plug flow reactor. The kinetics of the reaction given by
A + B → R, -rA = 200 CA CB , mol/(l.min) . Find the volume of reactor required to
achieve 99% conversion of A.
