(a)Show that Eq. (10.110) (i.e., a catalytic chemical reactor under a steady-state, isothermal condition) has the solution of the formWhere Co
is inlet concentration (mol/L) of toxic gas at z = 0.(b)Find the height of the fixed-bed reactor (expressed in m) such that the final concentration is equal to 1% of the initial value (i.e., C = 0.01 × Co). The fractional conversion is then given by:Use the following numerical values for parameters appearing in Eq. (10.112) to find the height of the bed to achieve 99% fractional conversion:(c) Use the MATLAB ode solver to solve Eq. (10.110). Notice that Eq. (10.110) can be solved using both the MATLAB symbolic and numerical ODE solver. Do not forget to put Eq. (10.110) in the standard form for solving an ODE (see Secs. 7.3 and 7.6). Use the same numerical values mentioned in part (c) plus you need to assume a value of C at z = 0 or (i.e., y(0)). You may assume that y(0) = 1 × 10 –3 mol/L and terminate at tf such that yf = 0.01 × 1 × 10 –3 = 1 × 10 -5 . Of course, tf is nothing but the height of the fixed-bed reactor. Notice that for MATLAB ode solver, z is replaced by t, whereas C may be used as is, or replaced by y.
