Extracted text: Ethylene oxide (EO) is a major commodity chemical that is manufactured throughout the world. EO is a chemical used to make ethylene glycol as the primary ingredient for antifreeze product. Apart from that, it is also used to make polyethylene-oxide where both the low molecular weight and high molecular weight polymers have many applications including as detergent additives. The catalytic reactor is operated at 200 °C and 20 atm. 20;H, + 02 2C;H,0 Your company believes that the market of EO will increase significantly over the next few years. Therefore, they are looking at the expansion of their EO capacity. Propose 3 types of reactor arrangement designs comprising of 2 reactors in series arrangement. As a chemical engineer you should suggest how should the reactors be arranged to achieve the highest conversion. Explain quantitatively your answer in detail the chosen design approach via complete sets of calculations.
