Question

A first order reaction AB with kinetics (-1A) = kCA is to be carried out in a batch reactor. If k is 0.01 min-1, calculate the reaction time to reach 80% conversion. The feed rate to the reactor is 20 litres per minute, and the reactor can be emptied at a rate of 10 litres per minute. The reactor volume is 250 litres. Cleaning takes approximately 1 hour. Estimate the overall batch cycle time.
