(a)
Interpretation:
Among the given value of conversion, the correct value of conversion if the diameter of the PBR in increased by the factor of
Concept introduction:
The full form of PBR is Packed-Bed Reactor which is used for the fluid-solid heterogeneous reactions. These fluid-solid heterogeneous reactions take place at the surface of the catalyst.
The conversion, X can be defined as the moles of any species A that are reacted per mole of A fed in the reactor.
(b)
Interpretation:
Among the given value of conversion, the correct value of equilibrium conversion is to be stated.
