Cascade.
Cascade
In an ideal CSTR (i.e. an ideal steady state flow reactor) the
contents in reactor. This set-up is used to study a non-catalytic
homogeneous second order liquid phase reaction under ambient condition.
The
setup consists of three CSTR arranged in series and two feed tanks
through which two reactants are fed to the reactor. Rotameters are
provided to measure the individual flow of Chemicals. The flow rate can
be adjusted by operating the needle valves provided on respective
Rotameter. The magnetic drive pump is used for circulation of feed.
Reactants from feed tanks enter in the first CSTR and are passed to
second CSTR and so on. For analysis samples are collected from different
ports provided.
Experiments
To study the performance of Cascade of three equal volumes CSTR's in series for the sponification of a reaction.
To draw the performance chart for the reactor system and evaluate the reaction rate constant at ambient condition
