(a)
Interpretation:
Volume of the CSTR and PFR reactor had to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
A continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) is a vessel to which reactants are added and products within the vessel are vigorously stirred using internal agitation or by internally recycling the contents.
Design equation for a CSTR is
Plug-flow reactor (PFR) consists of a hollow pipe or tube through which reactants flow. Water at a controlled temperature is circulated through the tank to maintain constant reactant temperature.
The general equation is
