In a continuous flow stirred tank reactor, the composition of the exit stream_________________?
Correct answer: C. Is same as that in the reactor
- A. Depends upon the flow rate of inlet stream
- B. Is different than that in the reactor
- C. Is same as that in the reactor
- D. None of these
Explanation
For an ideal continuous stirred-tank reactor, perfect mixing makes the concentration uniform throughout the reactor. Consequently, the exit stream has the same composition as the reactor contents, although that composition depends on operating conditions.

A pollutant P degrades according to first order kinetics. An aqueous stream containing P at 2 kmole/m3 and volumetric flow rate 1m3 /h requires a mixed flow reactor of volume V to bring down the pollutant level to 0.5 kmole/m3. The inlet concentration of the pollutant is now doubled and the volumetric flow rate is tripled. If the pollutant level is to be brought down to the same level of 0.5 k.mole/m3, the volume of the mixed flow reactor should be increased by a factor of_______________?
