The reversible reaction aA « bB+cC is performed in a membrane reactor – C diffuses through the membrane. If the feed is pure A at 298K and 1.02 atm and the reactor volume is 500L, find the molar rates, Fj, the concentrations, Cj, and the conversion of A as a function of reactor volume. What is the conversion of A for this reactor? Data: k1, forward rate constant is 1 (min-1); Kc (equilibrium constant) = 2.198 x 104 mol/m3, kc (mass transfer coefficient) = 4.2 (1/min), FAo=10 mol/min; a=1, b=1,c=1
