second-order, irreversible reaction with rate constant k = 1.8 L mol s takes place in a catalyst particle that can be considered to be a one-dimensional one-dimensional slab of half width = 1 cm. The concentration of -1 -1 reactant in the gas phase is 0.1 mol L and at the surface is 0.098 mol L . The gas-phase gas-phase mass-transfer -1 coefficient is 2 cm s . Determine the intra-phase effectiveness factor. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------2- The
irreversible, first-order reaction of gaseous A → B occurs in spherical catalyst pellets with a -1 2 -1 radius of 2 mm. The molecular diffusivity of A is 1.2 x 10 cm s and the Knudsen diffusivity is 9 x -3 2 -1 10 cm s . The intrinsic first-order rate constant determined from detailed laboratory measurements -1 -1 was found to be 5.0 s . The concentration concentration of A in the surrounding surrounding gas gas is 0.01 mol L . Assume the porosity and the tortuosity of the pellets are 0.5 and 4, respectively. (a) Determine the Thiele modulus for the catalyst pellets. (b) Find a value for the internal effectiveness factor. -1 (c) For an external mass-transfer coefficient of 32 s (based on the external area of the pellets), determine the concentration of A at the surface of the catalyst pellets. (d) Find a value for the overall effectiveness factor. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------3- The
importance of diffusion in catalyst pellets can often be determined by measuring the effect of pellet size on the observed reaction rate. Consider an irreversible first-order reaction occurring in catalyst pellets where the surface concentration concentration of reactant A is C AS = 0.15 M. Data: Diameter of sphere (cm) 3
