Extracted text: 3 As an engineer in a production facility, your assignment is to specify the size of a CSTR reactor needed to produce the new Covid-19 drug (C19P). The secret ingredient A as liquid stream (concentration=0.85 M) enters the reactor at 20 Litre per second, where it is consumed by irreversible reaction and too form C19P in the presence of a catalyst, called C19-enzyme. The equation of the reaction is: A + C19-enzyme → C19P Treaction A = K„Ca=0.020C4 a) What is the difference between a plug-flow reactor and a continuously stirred tank reactor? Please provide detailed, fully labelled diagrams to support your answer b) What is the role of a catalyst for any reaction? Please provide detailed, fully labelled diagrams to support your answer c) What reactor volume is needed so that the concentration of species A leaving the reactor equals 0.05 M? The density can be assumed to be constant.
