QUESTION

1.- A solid feed consisting of 20% by weight of particles of 1 mm in diameter, 30% of particles of 2 mm in diameter and 50% of particles of 4 mm in diameter, pass through a tubular reactor in which it reacts with a gas of constant composition to give a compact solid product. Experimentally it is found that the reaction can be modeled by the kinetic model of the unreacted nucleus and that the limiting stage is by chemical reaction. The time required for the conversion of the 4 mm particles is 4 h. Determine the time required to reach the 75, 95 and 100% conversion.
