    1. CSTR reactors have advantages like easy temperature control, long residence times, and low construction costs. Disadvantages include potential for reactants to bypass and low conversion per reactor volume. CSTRs are commonly used in fermentation and biological processes. 2. A 2015 study examined the saponification of ethyl acetate using a CSTR. The study investigated how operating conditions like temperature, flow rate, residence time, reactor volume, and stirrer rate affected conversion and reaction rates. Conversion increased with temperature, reactor volume, and stirrer rate but decreased with flow rate. The results provide insight into optimizing conversion for this reaction at an industrial scale using a CSTR.

    1.

    Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using CSTR reactors in chemical


    reaction. Describe an example of industrial applications that utilized CSTR reactors in its
    process.

    ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES

     It is quite easy to maintain good  Reactants can bypass if outlet


    temperature control with this placed improperly
    reactor.  Conversion of reactants to product
     Because of large volume it will per volume of reactor is small
    provide long residence time compared to other reactors
     It also has low cost of construction.  Deadzones, where no mixing occurs
     It is possible to keep up this reactor can develop
    at isothermal conditions for high
    heat reaction

    CSTR are often used in biological processes for example it is can be used for high-
    density animal cell culture in research or production. Another application of CSTR is
    fermenter that involves the use of biological catalyst to generate products. In fermenter,
    microbes catalyse a reaction that breaks down the larger molecules into smaller molecules
    with alcohol produced as a by-product.

    2. Write a one-paragraph summary of any journal article that studies chemical reaction in a
    CSTR. The article must have been published within the last 5 years. Explain on the CSTR
    reactor used in the study and its significance to the study done.

    TITTLE: EFFECT OF OPERATING CONDITIONS ON CSTR PERFOMANCE

    In this experiment, Saponification reaction of ethyl acetate by sodium hydroxide is


    studied experimentally in a continuous stirred tank reactor at 1 atmospheric pressure. The aim
    of this study is to investigate the influence of operating conditions on the conversion and
    specific rate constant. The parameters considered for analysis are temperature, feed flow rate,
    residence time, volume of reactor and stirrer rate. The steady state conversion of 0.45
    achieved after a period of 30 minutes. Conversion decreases with increase of reactant flow
    rate due to decrease of residence time. The stirrer rate has a positive effect on the conversion
    and rate constant. Specific rate constant and conversion increase with temperature within the
    studied temperature range. Within the range of reactor volume selected for analysis,
    conversion increases with increase in reactor volume. The results obtained in this study may
    be helpful in maximizing the conversion of ethyl acetate saponification reaction at industrial
    scale in a CSTR.
