Process Calculations GATE-2015
Q 1. The schematic diagram of the steady-state process is shown below. The fresh feed (F) to the reactor consists of 96 mol% reactant A and 4 mol% inert I. The stoichiometry of the reaction is A\rightarrow C . A part of the reactor effluent is recycled. The molar flow rate of the recycle stream is 0.3 F. The product stream P contains 50 mol% C. The percentage conversion of A in the reactor based on A entering the reactor at point 1 in the figure (up to one decimal place) is _____________.
