Continuous Reaction (PFR) Pilot Plant Vocational Training Equipment

REC2 Continuous Reaction (PFR) Pilot Plant Vocational Training Equipment

This unit is equipped with a tubular reactor thermostated and fed by two gear pumps; the flow rate of reagents is measured by two magnetic flowmeters. The study of kinetics is carried out versus the variation of conductivity at the reactor outlet.
TRAINING PROGRAM
This unit enables to deepen the following issues:
• Determination of reaction kinetics
• Reaction thermodynamics
• Mass and energy balance
• Exercises than can be carried out:
- kinetics of hydrolysis of ethyl acetate
