What is Plug Flow Reactor?
The plug flow reactor model (PFR, sometimes called continuous tubular reactor, CTR, or piston flow reactors) is a model used to describe chemical reactions in continuous, flowing systems of cylindrical geometry. The PFR model is used to predict the behavior of chemical reactors of such design, so that key reactor variables, such as the dimensions of the reactor, can be estimated.
How to Calculate Reactant Conversion for Zero Order Reaction for Plug Flow?
Reactant Conversion for Zero Order Reaction for Plug Flow calculator uses Reactant Conversion in PFR = (Rate Constant for Zero Order Reaction*Space Time in PFR)/Initial Reactant Concentration in PFR to calculate the Reactant Conversion in PFR, The Reactant Conversion for Zero Order Reaction for Plug Flow formula is defined as the amount of reactant converted into product for zero order reaction where fractional volume change is considerable. Reactant Conversion in PFR is denoted by XA-PFR symbol.
