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
For a heterogenous catalytic reaction, A + B → C, with equimole feed of A and B, the initial rate - rA0 is invariant with total pressure. The rate controlling step is

Surface Kc/(1 + TS) reaction between absorbed A and B in the gas phase
Surface reaction between A in the gas phase and absorbed B
Desorption of C
Surface reaction between absorbed A and absorbed B
