About COMBINED FLOW REACTOR APPARATUS

COMBINEDFLOW REACTOR APPARATUS

COMBINED FLOWREACTOR APPARATUS

This set-up is used to study a non-catalytic homogeneous secondorder liquid phase reaction under ambient condition in a combined reactor.

It consists of two reactors connected in series; one is plug flowreactor and another is CSTR. In an ideal Plug Flow Reactor (PFTR) there is nomixing in the direction of flow and complete mixing perpendicular to directionof flow. Concentration of reactants varies along the length of reactor but notin radial direction. In case of a coil turbulence is introduced due to frequentchange in direction of flow and presence of secondary flow, so a higher valueof reaction rate constant is expected in coil tube type plug flow reactor. Inan ideal CSTR the contents in reactor are well mixed and have uniformcomposition throughout.

Thus the exit stream has the same composition as the fluid withinthe reactor. The set up consists of two feed tanks through which two reactantsare fed to the reactors fitted in series. Rotameters are provided to measurethe individual flow of Chemicals. The flow rate can be adjusted by operatingthe needle valves provided on respective rotameter. The compressed air is usedfor circulation of feed. 1st is a helical coil tube type reactor made up of SS pipe.Reactants enter at lower end coming out of the top of coil from where it is fedto CSTR fitted with stirrer for proper mixing. Samples are collected foranalysis. Pressure Regulator, Pressure Gauge and Safety Valve are fitted in thecompressed air line.

Versatile Reactor Design for Advanced Research

The Combined Flow Reactor Apparatus supports both Plug Flow Reactor (PFR) and Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) experiments in a single, compact device. With customizable reactor volume and robust safety features, it is well-suited for engineering labs requiring flexible and reliable reaction systems.

Precision Control and Real-Time Data Acquisition

Equipped with high-accuracy flow meters, digital display, and built-in data logging, this apparatus ensures reliable measurements with 1% full-scale accuracy. Variable speed agitation and flow control via rotameter or needle valve provide fine-tuned process management for a wide range of chemical reactions.

Built with Laboratory Safety and Convenience in Mind

The apparatus meets standard laboratory safety requirements and includes protective features such as over-pressure safeguards and emergency shut-off. The removable reactor cover streamlines cleaning and specimen changes, while the bench-top design offers easy integration into most laboratory environments.

FAQs of COMBINED FLOW REACTOR APPARATUS:

Q: How do I operate both PFR and CSTR functions using the Combined Flow Reactor Apparatus?

A: You can easily switch between Plug Flow Reactor (PFR) and Continuous Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR) modes by configuring the flow and agitation settings. The apparatuss design accommodates both functions, allowing for seamless experimentation depending on your process requirements.

Q: What materials are used for the reactor vessel, and how do I choose between them?

A: The reactor is available in borosilicate glass or stainless steel options. You should select borosilicate glass for highly visible or less corrosive reactions, and stainless steel for handling higher temperatures, pressures, or more aggressive chemicals.

Q: When should I use the built-in data logging feature?

A: Utilize the data logging capability whenever monitoring and recording real-time flow, temperature, and pressure data is crucial for analysis, reporting, or optimizing experimental runs. The digital system allows for continuous, accurate tracking during your experiments.

Q: Where can the Combined Flow Reactor Apparatus be installed in the laboratory?

A: Its compact, bench-top design (600 x 300 x 650 mm) allows for easy placement on standard laboratory benches. Ensure the setup is near a 220V AC power supply and within a well-ventilated, safety-compliant workspace.

Q: What is the cleaning process for the reactor?

A: Routine cleaning is straightforward, as the reactor features a removable cover for full access. This design allows you to easily clean internal components and perform maintenance after each test or when changing specimen types.

Q: How does the apparatus enhance laboratory safety?

A: The reactor incorporates over-pressure protection, an emergency shut-off feature, and complies with standard laboratory safety protocols. These elements safeguard users against accidents during operation.

Q: What are the main benefits of using this apparatus for engineering testing?

A: This apparatus offers flexibility between continuous and stirred flow modes, accurate process control, built-in data logging for advanced analytics, and exceptional safety and cleaning convenience, making it an ideal choice for research and industrial applications.
