A dispersed plug chemical reactor has an in fluent flow with conc. 150 mg/L of A

Question

A dispersed plug chemical reactor has an in fluent flow with conc. 150 mg/L of A and a flow rate of 100 gal/min (380 L/min). The reaction is first order, The rate equation : - dC/dt = KCa= -ra ( and the rate constant is 0.4 h^-1 . The axial or longitudinal dispersion number, D/vL is 1.0 ) Determine: a- The required detention time and required volume if the removal or conversion of A is 90%. Express the volume as gallons and liters. b- The required detention time and the reactor volume if the removal of A is 80%. Express volume as gallons and liters.
