6.1 The Energy BalanceWHY WE NEED TO LEARN ENERGY BALANCE IN REACTION

ENGINEERING?

1.At times we need to calculate the volume necessary to achieve a conversion, X in a reactor.

2. For an exothermic reaction, the temperature profile vs. volume is given below

Lets say we have a CSTR and given a first order, exothermic liquid reaction carried out adiabatically (no heat loss or gained in the system).

1.Design equation for CSTR

VCSTR =FA0X−rA

2. Rate Law (First Order Reaction)−rA = kCA3.Because there is change of temperature during reaction therefore

4. We combine equation 1, 2,3 and 4 to obtain

• In this equation, we have 3 unknowns (Volume, Temperature and Conversion) which need to be solved.

• Therefore we need another relationship relating X and T or T and V.

• This additional relationship can be found through energy balance equation

Given the following reaction in an adiabatic CSTR.

You are feeding 2500 lb mol/h of A and equal molar flowrate of B to the reactor. The feed stream consist of 46.62 ft3/hr of A and 233.1 ft3/hr of B. The temperature of both feed stream is 58oF prior to mixing but there is an immediate 17oF temperature rise upon mixing of the 2 feed streams caused by the heat of mixing. The entering temperature of all feed streams is thus taken to be 75oF.For the conditions similar to those, it is found that that the reaction is first order with respect to A and zero order with respect to B with the specific reaction rate given as

k = Ae-­Ea/RT = 16.96x1012(e–32,400Btu/lb mol/RT)/hrCalculate the exit temperature at which the reaction is conducted and subsequently the CSTR volume when given the conversion as 10%. Assume the work done by stirrer is negligible.

9. From the logarithm, we have solved T value. 10. Therefore next is to find the new k value when

reaction temperature, T is 144.9 oF. Given from the question that

k = Ae-­Ea/RT = 16.96x1012(e-­32,400Btu/lb mol/RT)/hr

k =16.96×1012e−32,400 Btu/lb mol

RT

=16.96×1012e−32,400 Btu/lb mol

(1.987Btu/lb mol. oR)(144.9+459.69 oR) / hr = 32.84 / hr

mol/hr and the initial volumetric flowrate, as given in question as 46.62 ft3/hr of A and 233.1 ft3/hr of B. Therefore υ0,TOTAL = 46.62 + 233.1 ft3/hr = 279.72 ft3/hr

6.3 Equilibrium ConversionQUESTION: What Happen if its NON-­ISOTHERMAL REVERSIBLE reactions? 1. The highest conversion can be achieved in reversible reactions is

the equilibrium conversion.2. For endothermic (need heat) reactions, the equilibrium conversion

increases with increasing temperature up to a maximum of 1.0.3. For exothermic (release heat) reactions, the equilibrium

conversion decreases with increasing temperature.

6.4 Multiple Steady-­state56

1. Lets say in our reaction, we don’t have both data of Conversion (X) and Reaction Temperature (T) but we know the Volume of Reactor (V)

2. If we consider a first order irreversible liquid phase reaction with single steady state in a CSTR we can obtain 2 separate plots of Conversion, X vs. Reaction Temperature

3. First plot is obtain when we calculate Conversion, XMBvs. Temperature based on Mass Balance Equation.

VCSTR =FA0XMB

k(1− XMB )

Rearrange we get XMB =VCSTRk

When T changes, k = Ae−EaRT also changes

When k changes, XMB also changes

1. If a reaction parameter were changed slightly, the XEB line could move slightly to the left and there might be more than one intersection between both plots.

2. When more than one intersection occurs, there is more than one set of conditions that satisfy both the energy balance and mole balance

3. This is called as multiple steady states at which the reaction may operate
