ISOTHERMAL BATCH REACTOR

DESCRIPTION :

CRE Lab- homogeneous

A batch reactor is a closed system with no input and output
streams. A batch reactor can operate under conditions like
Isothermal (Temperature of Reaction Mass remains
constant), Perfectly mixed (composition of reaction mixture
is uniform throughout), and constant volume (volume of the
reaction mixture within the reactor remains constant, there
is no appreciable change in the density of reaction mass).
This set-up is used to study a non-catalytic homogeneous
reaction under isothermal condition.
The set up consists of a Reactor fitted in a constant temperature water bath. One stirrer is fitted for
mixing the reactants in reactor and other is fitted in water bath to keep the uniform temperature
throughout in the bath. The temperature of bath can be maintained from ambient to 90C with the help of
Digital Temperature indicator Cum Controller. Samples can be taken out with the help of a sampling
pipette.
EXPERIMENTATION:

To study the progress of a Chemicals reaction and determine the kinetic parameters.
To determine the effect of temperature on Reaction Rate Constant.
UTILITIES REQUIRED :

Water Supply.
Floor Drain.
Electricity Supply : 1 Phase, 220 V AC, 1.5 kW.
Instruments, Laboratory Glassware and Chemicals required for analysis as per the system adopted.
