A first-order liquid phase reaction A → B is carried out in two isothermal plug
flow reactors (PFRs) of volume 1 m3 each, connected in series. The feed flow rate
and concentration of A to the first reactor are 10 m3 h−1 and 1 kmol m−3,
respectively. At steady-state, the concentration of A at the exit of the second reactor
is 0.2 kmol m−3. If the two PFRs are replaced by two equal-volume continuously
stirred tank reactors (CSTRs) to achieve the same overall steady-state conversion,
the volume of each CSTR, in m3, is ______
Correct : a
