Isothermal 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 90 C with the help of Digital Temperature indicator Cum Controller. Samples can be taken out with the help of a sampling pipette

Experiments

• 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 & Drain
• Instruments, Laboratory Glassware and Chemicals required for analysis as per the system adopted

In an ideal Continuously Stirred Tank Reactor, the contents of the reactor are well mixed and have a uniform composition throughout. Thus the exit stream has the same, composition as the fluid within the reactor. This type of reactor is known as mixed flow reactor. This set-up is used to study a non-catalytic homogeneous second order liquid phase reaction under ambient condition.

The set up consists of two feed tanks through which two reactants are fed to the reactor. Rotameters are provided to measure the individual flow of Chemicals. The flow rate can be adjusted by operating the needle valves provided on respective Rotameter. The magnetic drive pump is used for circulation of feed. The CSTR is fitted with a stirrer for proper mixing. From the top outlet of it, samples are collected for analysis
