The irreversible elementary gas-phase reaction is carried out isothermally at 305 K in a packed-bed reactor with 100 kg of catalyst. The entering pressure was 20 atm and the exit pressure is 2 atm. The feed is equal molar in A and B and the flow is in the turbulent flow regime, with F A0 10 mol/min and C A0 0.4 mol/dm 3 . Currently 80% conversion is achieved. What would be the conversion if the catalyst particle size were doubled and everything else remained the same

Answer:

0.856

Explanation:

Given data:

Feed molar rate ( Fao ) = 10 mol/min

Feed concentration ( Cao ) = 0.4 mol/dm^3

current conversion rate = 80%  

Temperature = 305 K

catalyst = 100 kg

entering pressure = 20 atm

exit pressure = 2 atm

Determine the conversion if the catalyst particle size were doubled and everything else remained the same

The conversion if the catalyst particle size were doubled and other factors remains the same = 0.856

attached below is a detailed solution
