What is continuous stirred-tank reactor?
The continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR), also known as vat- or backmix reactor, mixed flow reactor (MFR), or a continuous-flow stirred-tank reactor (CFSTR), is a common model for a chemical reactor in chemical engineering and environmental engineering. A CSTR often refers to a model used to estimate the key unit operation variables when using a continuous agitated-tank reactor to reach a specified output. The mathematical model works for all fluids: liquids, gases, and slurries.
How to Calculate Initial Reactant Concentration for First Order Reaction in Vessel i?
Initial Reactant Concentration for First Order Reaction in Vessel i calculator uses Reactant Concentration in Vessel i-1 = Reactant Concentration in Vessel i*(1+(Rate Constant for First Order Reaction*Adjusted Retention Time of Comp 2)) to calculate the Reactant Concentration in Vessel i-1, The Initial Reactant Concentration for First Order Reaction in Vessel i for ε equal to Zero formula is defined as the amount of reactant per solvent in vessel i-1 or amount of reactant per solvent fed to vessel i for first order reaction where fractional volume change equal to zero. Reactant Concentration in Vessel i-1 is denoted by C i-1 symbol.
How to calculate Initial Reactant Concentration for First Order Reaction in Vessel i using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Initial Reactant Concentration for First Order Reaction in Vessel i, enter Reactant Concentration in Vessel i (Ci), Rate Constant for First Order Reaction (k') & Adjusted Retention Time of Comp 2 (trC2') and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Initial Reactant Concentration for First Order Reaction in Vessel i calculation can be explained with given input values -> 3415.8 = 30*(1+(2.508*45)).
