Chemical Reaction Engineering
An irreversible aqueous phase reaction, A + B → P, is carried out in an adiabatic mixed flow reactor. A feed containing 4kmole/m³ of each A and B enters the reactor at 8m³ /hr. If the temperature of the exit stream is never to exceed 390 K, what is the maximum inlet feed temperature allowed?(Data: Heat of reaction = - 50 kJ/mole, Density of the reacting mixture = 1000kg/m³, Specific heat of reacting mixture = 2kJ/kg.K)The above data can be assumed to be independent of temperature and composition.

390
190
290
490

A space time of 3 hours for a flow reactor means that

The time required to process one reactor volume of feed (measured at specified conditions) is 3 hours
It takes three hours to dump the entire volume of the reactor with feed
Three reactor volumes of feed can be processed every hour
Conversion is cent per cent after three hours
