Chemical Reaction Engineering: Asynchronous Video Series

This document discusses reaction stoichiometry in batch systems. It introduces the concept of a batch stoichiometric table that lists the initial and remaining amounts of species in a reaction. The table includes reaction components, products, and inerts. It notes that for constant volume batch reactors where reactions occur in liquid or rigid gas phases, concentrations can be related to the fraction of A reacted using the stoichiometric ratios and initial amounts of species. The document emphasizes that stoichiometry is needed to determine reaction rates as a function of conversion and properly size continuous flow reactors.

Chapter 3, Part 2:
Reaction Stoichiometry: Batch

H. Scott Fogler, Ph.D.


Why Stoichiometry?
• If we have FA 0
− rA

• Then we can size a number of CSTR and PFR reaction systems

• To find -rA= f(X)


1) Need the rate law, -rA=f(CA, CB) !!
2) Need the reaction stoichiometry, CA=CA0(1-X) [Liquid Phase]
