SINGLE-STREAM PROCESSES
Batch and continuous
Plug and back-mixed
Multi-stage back-mixed, the stages being
similar or stages being dissimilar
Separation and recycle.
Batch-Continuous Hybrids
A continuous processes that has batch operation
somewhere along its length, usually for raw
material introduction or for product handling
A batch process that has a continuous feed of
some component during all or part of its course.
(a fed-batch process)
In general
Extent = ( [C] no reaction - [C] ) / [C]
no reaction
Comparisons
Required hold-up time falls off greatly as final extent
of reaction drops
All configurations behave about the same at extents
up to 0.5
At high (0.99) extent, the single well-mixed reactor
requires very large hold-up time
A sequence of well-mixed stages is much more
efficient than one stage and, with enough stages,
can even approach the performance of plug-flow.
