For a tubular reactor with space time ‘η’ and residence time ‘ζ’, the following statement holds good?
Aη = θ, when the fluid density changes in the reactor
Bη = θ, for a non-isothermal reactor
Cη = θ, for an isothermic tubular reactor in which the density of the process fluid is constant
Dη and θ are always equal
Correct answer
C. η = θ, for an isothermic tubular reactor in which the density of the process fluid is constant
Explanation
The correct answer is η = θ, for an isothermic tubular reactor in which the density of the process fluid is constant.
