Plug Flow Reactor, Straight Tube Type

Model HV-EXP1768
In an ideal Plug Flow Reactor (PFTR) there is no mixing in the  direction of flow and complete mixing perpendicular to direction of  flow. Concentration of reactants varies along the length of reactor but  not in radial direction. This set-up is used to study a non-catalytic  homogeneous 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 compressed air is used for  circulation of feed. A straight tube type reactor kept horizontally and  inclined upward at outlet from where samples are collected for analysis. Pressure Regulator, Pressure Gauge and Safety Valve are fitted in the  compressed air line.
