An industrial wastewater treatment process currently uses a single completely mixed flow reactor (CMFR) to achieve 80% removal of a chemical (i.e., 1 - Cout/Cin = 0.8) that decays following first-order kinetics. (a) What would be the percentage removal in a plug flow reactor (PFR) of the same volume and flow rate? (b) If the CMFR reactor is reconfigured so that the total volume, flow rate, and influent concentration of the chemical remain the same, but the volume is separated...

Assume a biological process can be performed in either a plug flow or completely mixed flow reactor, and the process has a first-order reaction rate K of 0.5 hr-1. Assume an influent concentration of 100 mg/L, a regulatory required effluent concentration of 10 mg/L, and a flow rate of 100 m3/hr. a. What reactor volume (m3) is required if one completely mixed reactor is used? HINT: use the equation for a first order reaction with a CMR. b. What...

1). A plug-flow reactor has a flow pattern of uniform velocity and concentration in the axial (longitudinal) direction. (T), (F) 2). For natural water (pH around 6−8), alkalinity is equal to the concentration of HCO3-. (T), (F) 3). Unit operation means a treatment unit in which “treatment” is accomplished through chemical/biological means. (T), (F) 4). Based on the law of mass action, the reaction rate is proportional to the remaining concentration of the products (T), (F) 5). Strict household use from public water supply systems is...

A completely mixed activated sludge process is to be used to treat a flow rate of 2.5 MGD. Design a rectangular activated sludge reactor with a 4:1 ratio of length to width. (design only 1 reactor for all flow). The effluent from the plant must not exceed 15 mg/L of BOD5. Use the following design criteria: a. BOD5 influent = 250.0 mg/L b. MLVSS (X) = 3500 mg/L c. Reactor depth = 11 ft d. Effluent BOD5 must be less...

Initial concentration= 1mol/L, velocity of flow=2000L/min, liquid phase reactant enter the reactor. (-rA=kCA^2 , k=5000L/mol*min) We want to achieve a conversion of 90 % of the reactant. 1) Find the volume of the reactor when using the CSTR reactor. And find the volume of the reactor when using the PFR reactor. 2) Find the conversion of A at the exit of the reactor when you make the volume of the PFR reactor equal to that of the CSTR reactor saved...
