Continuous Reaction Pilot Plant (CSTRs In Series) vocational education equipment

REC3 Continuous Reaction Pilot Plant (CSTRs In Series) vocational education equipment

This unit is equipped with two continuous stirred-tank reactors (CSTR) connected in series and fed by two metering pumps. 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
• Operation of reactors in series
• Reaction thermodynamics
• Mass and energy balance
• Exercises than can be carried out:
- kinetics of hydrolysis of ethyl acetate
