The desired liquid-phase reaction
D + E → k1F rF = k1 CD2 CE0.3
is accompanied by an undesired side reaction
D + E → k2G rG = k2 CD0.4 CE1.5
Four isothermal reactor schemes (CSTR: ideal Continuous-Stirred Tank Reactor; PFR: ideal Plug Flow Reactor) for processing equal molar feed rates of D and E are shown in figure.
Each scheme is designed for the same conversion.
The scheme that gives the most favorable product distribution is:
D + E → k1F rF = k1 CD2 CE0.3
is accompanied by an undesired side reaction
D + E → k2G rG = k2 CD0.4 CE1.5
