Chemical Reaction Engineering
For a tubular reactor with space time 'τ' and residence time 'θ', the following statement holds good.

τ and θ are always equal
τ = θ , for a non-isothermal reactor
τ = θ , for an isothermic tubular reactor in which the density of the process fluid is constant
τ = θ , when the fluid density changes in the reactor

Chemical Reaction Engineering
A pollutant P degrades according to first order kinetics. An aqueous stream containing P at 2 kmole/m³ and volumetric flow rate 1m³ /h requires a mixed flow reactor of volume V to bring down the pollutant level to 0.5 kmole/m³ . The inlet concentration of the pollutant is now doubled and the volumetric flow rate is tripled. If the pollutant level is to be brought down to the same level of 0.5 kmole/m³ , the volume of the mixed flow reactor should be increased by a factor of
