RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT :

• Study of Isothermal Continuous stirred tank reactor.
• To calculate the reaction rate constant k for given reaction in Isothermal Continuous stirred tank reactor.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION :

C.S.T.R is a reactor in which the content are well stirred and uniform throughout . Thus exit stream from this reactor has the same composition as the fluid within the reactor. We can refer also mixed type reactorThe reactants are initially charged in to a container, mixed well and then left to react for certain period of time. At any instant the composition throughout the rector is uniform.
