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 Space Time for First Order Reaction in Vessel i?
Space Time for First Order Reaction in Vessel i calculator uses Adjusted Retention Time of Comp 2 = (Reactant Concentration in Vessel i-1-Reactant Concentration in Vessel i)/(Reactant Concentration in Vessel i*Rate Constant for First Order Reaction) to calculate the Adjusted Retention Time of Comp 2, The Space Time for First Order Reaction in Vessel i formula is defined as the time taken by the amount of fluid to either completely enter or completely exit the reactor vessel i for first order reaction. Adjusted Retention Time of Comp 2 is denoted by trC2' symbol.
How to calculate Space Time for First Order Reaction in Vessel i using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Space Time for First Order Reaction in Vessel i, enter Reactant Concentration in Vessel i-1 (C i-1), Reactant Concentration in Vessel i (Ci) & Rate Constant for First Order Reaction (k') and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Space Time for First Order Reaction in Vessel i calculation can be explained with given input values -> 45 = (50-30)/(30*2.508).
