Feed Reactant Concentration Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Concentration of Key Reactant A in the Feed = Molar Feed Rate of Reactant/Volumetric Flow Rate of Feed to Reactor
C_Ao = F_Ao/v_o
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Concentration of Key Reactant A in the Feed - (Measured in Mole per Cubic Meter) - The Concentration of Key Reactant A in the Feed gives the concentration of reactant A being fed to the reactor.
Molar Feed Rate of Reactant - (Measured in Mole per Second) - The Molar Feed Rate of Reactant gives the number of moles of A being fed to the reactor per unit time.
Volumetric Flow Rate of Feed to Reactor - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - The Volumetric Flow Rate of Feed to Reactor gives the volume of the reactants stream being fed to the reactor per unit time.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Molar Feed Rate of Reactant: 5 Mole per Second --> 5 Mole per Second No Conversion Required
Volumetric Flow Rate of Feed to Reactor: 10 Cubic Meter per Second --> 10 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

What is Feed Concentration?

The Feed Concentration of the reactant is the concentration of the reactant being fed to the reactor. The Feed concentration is given in units of moles per cubic meter.

What is Chemical Reaction Engineering?

Chemical reaction engineering is a specialty in chemical engineering or industrial chemistry dealing with chemical reactors. Frequently the term relates specifically to catalytic reaction systems where either a homogeneous or heterogeneous catalyst is present in the reactor. Sometimes a reactor per se is not present by itself, but rather is integrated into a process, for example in reactive separations vessels, retorts, certain fuel cells, and photocatalytic surfaces.

How to Calculate Feed Reactant Concentration?

Feed Reactant Concentration calculator uses Concentration of Key Reactant A in the Feed = Molar Feed Rate of Reactant/Volumetric Flow Rate of Feed to Reactor to calculate the Concentration of Key Reactant A in the Feed, The Feed Reactant Concentration gives the concentration of the reactant feed being fed to the reactor as the ratio of moles of feed per unit volumetric flow rate. Concentration of Key Reactant A in the Feed is denoted by C_Ao symbol.

How to calculate Feed Reactant Concentration using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Feed Reactant Concentration, enter Molar Feed Rate of Reactant (F_Ao) & Volumetric Flow Rate of Feed to Reactor (v_o) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Feed Reactant Concentration calculation can be explained with given input values -> 0.5 = 5/10.
