A back mix reactor is___________________?
Correct answer: B. Same as ideal stirred tank reactor
- A. Suitable for gas phase reactions
- B. Same as ideal stirred tank reactor
- C. Same as plug flow reactor (PFR)
- D. Ideal at very low conversion
Explanation
A back-mix reactor continuously mixes incoming material with reactor contents, making its composition uniform throughout. This is the ideal stirred tank reactor, or CSTR, rather than a plug-flow reactor.
