The exothermic, gas phase reaction is carried out in a plug flow reactor operating adiabatically.
2A →в
0.20 mol steam/mol A at 600°C and 1 atm are fed to the reactor. The rate law and reaction rate constant are given
- r¹ = kP²a [mol/m³.h.]
k = 2000 exp (-6000/T) [mol/m³.h.atm²]
where
Pa is the partial pressure of A (atm)
