Question 1) The gas phase reaction (A→ B+C) must be carried out in a fixed-bed tubular reactor using a solid catalyst in a spherical shape of 0.4 cm in diameter. The reactor must operate isothermally at 573 K and an inlet pressure of 1 atm. The reaction is first order and the reactor is fed with pure A at a molar flow of FA0-1 g-mol/s. The internal diameter of the reactor must be 2.54 cm.It is known: -The reaction on the surface of the catalyst is of the type r₁=kCA.; -The particle density gp=2 g/cm3; -The porosity of the bed gl= 0.40.-This reaction, when carried out using the catalyst in powder form, obtained a speed of R 1 10-3 g-mol/g-cat.s, at a temperature of 573 K and pure reagent A at a pressure of 1 atm .-Consider that the reactor is being operated under conditions free from resistance to external mass transfer to the particle.-The effective molecular diffusivity in the gas phase (DAB) to solve this exercise must also be considered constant with the temperature and composition…
