CONTINUOUS STIRRED TANK REACTOR (C.S.T.R.) - Accessory

About CONTINUOUS STIRRED TANK REACTOR (C.S.T.R.) - Accessory

The set is mounted on the base plate and easily can be installed on the chemical reactor service unit for conducting experiments. The capacity of the reactor is adjustable between 0.5 Ltrs to 1.5 Ltrs. Reactants are fed to the system and mixed in the reactor. A variable speed mixer with speed control facility is provided to conduct the experiment on different speed of the impeller thus to determine the effect of mixer speed. Detachable baffles also accompany the reactor vessel. A coil is placed in the reactor through whom hot water with constant temperature is circulated which enables to enhance the experimentations for different temperature. 

EXPERIMENTATION :

• To study the effect of variation of conversion with residence time.
• To determine the reaction rate constant.
• To study the residence time distribution.
• To evaluate empirical rate expressions from experimental data.
• To study the effect of temperature on reaction rate.
• To study the effect of efficiency of mixing.
