The production of ethyl acetate occurs in a batch reactor with two raw materials, ethanol and acetic acid, as shown with the following reaction: ??2??5???? + ????3???????? ? ????3????????2??5 + ??2??

The reaction may be written simply in the form of: ?? + ?? ? ?? + ??

The reaction rate in the liquid phase is given by: ???? = ??1???????? At 100°C: ??1 = 7.93 × 10?6 m3kmol?1 s ?1

A feed of 38.4% by weight of acid, 50% by weight of alcohol, and no ester is used to promote a 35% conversion of the acid. The density of the mixture can be assumed to remain constant at 1020 kg m?3 . The daily production rate for the production of ethyl acetate is 50 metric tonnes and the reactor will be operated 24 hours a day with the time for filling, emptying, cleaning is 1 hour total for each batch.

Determine the following:

a) Initial and final concentration of each species (don’t forget about the water) [6 marks]

b) Batch reaction time [6 marks]

c) Number of batches per day [4 marks]

d) Reactor volume for required daily production [4 marks]
