Question about reactor designQ3// Two stirred tank reactors are available at a chemical plant, one of volume 100<br>m³ and the other of volume 50 m³. It is suggested that these tanks be used as a two<br>stage CSTR for carrying out an irreversible liquid phase reaction,<br>A +B → Products. The two reactants only will be present in the feed stream in<br>equimolar amounts, CAo = CBo = 1 gmol/lit. The volumetric feed rate will be 20<br>lit/min. The rate constant is 0.011 lit/(gmol.min). Which tank should be used as the<br>first stage for higher overall conversion?<br>
