Study of Cascades of CSTRs and Plug Flow Reactors Based on Residence Time

The investigated reactors, Cascade and Plug Flow Reactor were studied with the aim of system testing and determining their respective modelings according to their responses in terms of residence time. In order to answer the questions stated at the beginning of the research, a meticulous experimental analysis was operated, and results were collected and compared. Such results displayed both windows for comparisons and contrasts between the reactors: The first salt to be analyzed was KCl at a low flow rate (23 L/h) and low concentration (5%) carried at a volume of 8mL, with this salt the model used in this paper can prove that the experimental results are not extremely farfetched from the expected values. Another result that supports this claim is the second one used at a higher flow rate and concentration, making it clearer that the model applied to the collected results does not need any extra parameters, when it comes to changes such as concentration, volume or even flow rate.BSc/BAChemical EngineeringLBg
