Answer / o.v.r.reddy

MULTI EXTRACTIONS WITH COUNTER CURRENT WAY WITH SMALL
VOLUME OF SOLVENT IS BEST OR CONTINUOS EXTRACTION IN TOWER
WITH CONTACTING OF SOLUTE AND SOLVENT PHASES OPPOSITELY
UNDER SLOW STIRRING DEPENDING UPON SP.GRAVITY OF RSFITE AND
ORGANIC.

Answer / mohan

several small volume exractions are quiet best than the
single exraction..coz thr may be a chance for getting the
undesired product,i mean we dnt get the desired
quality..and also the feed must not be fully extracted in
case of single exraction,moreover it takes much time to
extract the feed..but in multi extractions with small
volume fullfill the drawback from the single extraction..it
takes less time to extract the feed..

REACTION ENGINEERING - EXAMPLE 13.2 : A batch reactor is designed for the system of the irreversible, elementary liquid-phase hydration of butylene oxide that produces butylene glycol. At the reaction temperature T = 323 K, the reaction rate constant is k = 0.00083 L / (mol - min). The initial concentration of butylene oxide is 0.25 mol / L = Ca. The reaction is conducted using water as the solvent, so that water is in large excess. (a) Let the molecular weight of water is 18 g / mol and the mass of 1 kg in 1 L of water, calculate the molar density of water, Cb in the unit of mol / L. (b) Determine the final conversion, X of butylene oxide in the batch reactor after t = 45 min of reaction time. Use the formula X = 1 - 1 / exp [ kt (Cb) ] derived from material balance. (c) Find the equation of t as a function of X.
